Farmer's Market in Corning, New York

Today we want to share a video about how the biggest glass pumpkins are made. At Nourot we are doing maybe 5 sizes, all smaller than this, have a look.Oh, yeah, it takes five guys. Also it takes some special equipment and a half dozen tries, apparently.
And the fisherman picture is just for our guys. Get busy, a boat of glass would be really cool.
The Glass Pumpkin Sale at the Corning Museum of Glass is in the parking lot this weekend. Check out the details on the Corning Museum of Glass site. www.cmog.org

Pumpkin Patch in Benicia





Usually I'd just post these images to FB but the FB page isn't working today. So folks, yes, Nourot has been making glass pumpkins. We couldn't make them all the same, never. We have short ones, tall, ones, black ones, orange ones, silver mirrored ones and well, just about any color! The pale ones are my personal favorite. There is allot to making these as we found out. The stems are kind of tricky and time sensitive. Not real forgiving once they touch down!
For more images write us at the shop or call. We are off to an outdoor art fair this weekend at Phil and Chad Glashoff's near Green Valley, CA. Not our usual venue, but it's a party so what the heck. Try and catch your self one this month before they are all gone. The prices start at $50. Thanks for reading.
