First cup!

My sister and I did an hour long class to learn some basics! My cup (on the left) broke because I didn’t have it deep enough when flashing and it was a little thinner at the rim so it cooled too fast. I still love it so much! My sister did awesome with her cup on the right.

I got to gather, marver, roll in frit, reheat, sit at the bench and turn it, spin it in the air to elongate it, use the jacks for the constriction… and I got to blow for my sister’s cup. Only thing I didn’t do was start the bubble or start the twist.

I had a blast and can’t wait to do more.
