Hands On is committed to giving you more options for exploring your creativity. each year, we expand the selection of ceramic, glass, mosaic, wood and metal projects available to our customers. So, there’s always something new!

HERE’S AN EXCITING BIT OF NEWS:

Love jewelery?

Design and create your own jewelery in our glass studio. In 2008 we added lampworking to create glass beads. Now in 2009 we added precious metal clay, an amazing art material with the versatility of clay and the brilliant beauty of silver. Design your jewelery piece with the soft, pliable clay then we fire it so you have a solid precious metal piece in silver. Wear your jewlery the same day!!

BUILDING ON CREATIVITY

Throughout the 2007 fall/winter season we completed contruction of the metal and glass studios. These two specialized studios are situated in close proximity to the “Art Barn”.

The long-term vision for the expansion was directly connected to demand. People really enjoy spending the whole day here – particularly on rainy days – so we wanted the business to evolve to accommodate our customers comfortably.

There won’t be many places in the country like Hands On. After 25 years of making art myself, it gives me so much satisfaction to see other people enjoying my studio. All of us here – the staff and myself – really like helping other people realize their creative visions. It’s a cool exchange – we give our customers ideas, and they give us ideas!
