We will make a "dragonfly ball" with various colors and patterns. A glass rod is melted with a burner, wound around a metal rod, and slowly cooled in a slow cooling material. You can create various patterns by mixing the glass of your favorite color or adding a flower pattern. The dragonfly balls you make can be used for accessories such as pendants, straps, and bracelets, and you can also make incense holders. Since a burner is used, participants must be at least 4 years old in elementary school.
