Our friend Nathan Lee got the site started and worked up the layout. He was great to work with and has gotten me motivated to work on our online presence.<br />
<br />
When we made the switch over I went ahead and switched over to the Google GSuite for Work. It has been great. I like the Google products. It was a bit of learning curve on getting set up through GoDaddy and pointing servers over to the right location but they have a great help staff and online tutorials.<br />

It is a huge process but lots of fun. The shows in May were great for moving out some of our glass so we can make some more. Summer has been productive. I am working on an installation project. Roy is working on some new shells, Ray is busy getting ready for the GlassWorx showroom next door. Mara is really promoting the building for events and parties. Lots of folks are coming in for lessons and creating new things.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Welcome to Blue Sage Studios where we will be creating a
unique hand blown art glass ornaments. There are many names for this style of glass
decoration: suncatchers, witches balls, kugles. Typically, the ornament is a
three inch diameter ball with a loop on top for hanging. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Individuals will have the opportunity to choose from a
variety of glass colors to adorn their creations. Each member of the group will
create their ornament using 2000 degree molten glass. It takes about ten
minutes to make a piece so be sure to allot a good amount of time when you
schedule your group session. Call the studio 405-601-2583 or email Andy Boatman
<u><a href="mailto:andy@bluesagestudios.com">andy@bluesagestudios.com</a></u> to schedule ornament sessions. The studio is
flexible on scheduling but available time slots fill up quickly. We recommend
booking at least two to three weeks in advance. The base cost of the ornament
session is $120 an hour.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">At Blue Sage Studios we can host group events of about any
size, from small family gatherings, girls night out, to large group events. Feel
free to bring some snacks and drinks and have a party while you are at the
studio. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">For families, everyone is able to participate. Keep an eye on
the little ones as it is a hot glass studio so there are plenty of breakables
around. When we are working one also has to assume that everything is hot. Cotton
clothing and closed toe shoes (tennis shoes are fine) are recommended. A bottle
of water is a good idea.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

It was going to cost a lot for shipping so might as well order a bunch to try it all and share. So the Ice Cream Social was born.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.7999992370605px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.7999992370605px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.7999992370605px;">Every year around this time. Ray and I buy a bunch of ice cream and invite everybody over to the studio for a scoop or two. My mom usually bakes a cake and some of the ladies in the studio bring some brownies. It is an opportunity to get together and hang out for a bit which really does not get to happen all that often.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.7999992370605px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.7999992370605px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.7999992370605px;">So come by the studio (</span><a data-cke-saved-href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/Blue+Sage+Studios/@35.480488,-97.52971,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0xeab4d99139e1c0d" href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/Blue+Sage+Studios/@35.480488,-97.52971,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x0:0xeab4d99139e1c0d" style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.7999992370605px;" target="_blank">1218-C N.

ChicagoWe had the great pleasure to attend the Glass Art Society Conference in Chicago this past week. It was great fun. I was able to attend several lectures on art and design, watch world class artists create signature pieces, and wander the city. I met a lot of new people and was able to connect with old friends once again. I think anytime someone is able to attend a conference in their field it brings new ideas and inspiration to their work.<br />
<br />
If anyone is out and about traveling the states going to and fro be sure to stop in Oklahoma and hang out for a while at the studio. It is always a pleasure to see folks and share our space.andy bhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18429733329375990304noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10554484.post-20228582148056191502014-01-07T17:26:00.002-06:002023-05-22T16:06:18.107-05:00New YearWell it is a new year.

We are trying a Friday off routine. We shall see how it goes. This results in more compact schedules and we will be having both glory holes running more often resulting in having two folks working at a time. This should help us get folks into the studio and work but not lose time.<br />

The project came together nicely. Glass wise I learned a lot and installation wise too. It was a fun project and I am pleased with the out come.
If you are interested in a custom art glass installation just let me know.

It is a great way to learn. Ornaments are repetitive and allow the glassblower to execute multiple skills in a short amount of time. Creating ornaments is great for learning and perfecting skills.<br />
This class has four people and four hours. We usually get about five or six ornaments created per person.<br />
<br />
We have been hosting a lot of parties lately in the studio. Times are filling up quickly but if you would like to come into the glass studio for a party call quickly to schedule.<br />

It is difficult to do when time runs the way it does. I renew interest and falter. <br>
Bringing me to the ice cream social this weekend. The 28th of October. It is 2-5 that afternoon. Always a good time. Please come. Bring family and friends. Hang out. Have a couple of scoops.<br>
