    I know that these Make-It-Now work shops are one of the most popular date events that we have posted around Valentine’s Day.  Great to see that the Pittsburgh Glass center is offering a Make-It-Now Ornament for the holidays.

    Suitable for ages 10 and above – you can stop by the glass center and make a colorful glass ornament to display in a window or on a tree.
