    I think you need to talk to your iPhone about this! It's actually 'Chihuly'.

    I finally got off of the "glassblower" kick. Now it's Flameworker or Lampworker, because I'd rather have someone be confused as to what it is and explain it than to hear "Ohhh like that Chululee?!" one.more.fucking.time.

    when somebody asks me what i do, i tell them i burn and cut myself. it's a hangover from 12 years in the culinary industry.

    plus, it works just as well with metalworking.

    I often say glass worker or glassblower because I do flameworking, blowing, and casting.

    I cant wait for human cloning so I can make two more of me and finally open up a studio called " me , myself, and I glassworks" . pardon me I may have just taken too long of a safety break

    I refer to myself as a craftsman at a glass company if i have to put it in print. job description, "I take raw materials, and turn them into finished products." I cant wait for cloning either man, i want to start a band. That is what shifted my focus hard to glass, dealing with poor character of musicians.
