Bottle Cutting Workshop @ The Piggery

  • indigo & violet studio 1625 West Irving Park Road Chicago, IL, 60613 United States (map)

Over 45 Billion glass bottles are produced each year in the United States alone. Wouldn't it be cool to turn them into something useful? 

Bottle cutting is a fun way to up-cycle used glass bottles into something beautiful and functional. With a few basic tools and our expert instruction, you can turn almost any glass bottle into a beautiful handmade drinking glass. Bring your favorite empty glass bottle (4 per person max, round bottles only) and learn how to score, cut and sand into the size of your choosing. We will also cover several different methods of decorating your newly cut bottle.

*Each student should bring up to four bottles to be cut and decorated. Bottles must be empty, clean and dry with unwanted labels removed. Only round bottles will work. All other tools and materials will be provided.
