This green glass candy ornament looks sweet enough to unwrap, but it’s all sparkle and no sugar. I sculpt each one in the torch flame, starting with a colored glass rod that I coil pot to form a smooth tube. Coil potting is where I melt and wrap the rod in tight spirals, fusing it into a solid walled tube. Once that’s done, I coat the tube in clear glass for extra depth and shine, then blow and stretch it into the shape of a candy.
The clear twisted ends catch the light like frost, while the rich green body glows warmly against your holiday lights. I add two fine red lines and a white squiggle down the middle that looks like holly garland, complete with tiny red dots and little green leaves to mimic festive berries and foliage. A golden tinsel string is strung through the top, ready to hang on your Christmas tree. Every ornament is handmade with durable borosilicate glass. — — — — — — — — — — — -Size: 3.6 inches tall -Comes on a gold tinsel string. -The ornament comes signed and dated by me (BAM 2025) -Handmade in Northern Wisconsin. -All ornaments are kiln-annealed to ensure durability and relieve stress in the glass.
