McMow Artisans!


McMow’s own Faith Morreale and Debbie Hawthorne are not only great teachers of their craft, but are amazing artists as well.  We are proud to carry some of their beautiful pieces of art and jewelry at McMow.

Faith, who has a BFA in ceramics from UCF, joined the McMow team shortly after graduating from college.  It was at McMow where she learned and perfected her glass craft.  Her most recent works incorporate fused pendants with hand beaded necklaces and fused wind chimes with hand beaded elements. She teaches our Fusing 1 class as well as Intermediate Stained Glass.

Debbie has been a glass artist for several years, she likes to do local art shows and teaches Make it and Take it classes as well as Mixed Media classes at McMow.  She likes to work with fused glass but has done it all from stained glass to mosaic! Her latest works incorporate fused with mosaic, and fused with stained glass.  She is influenced by her tropical surroundings and her exquisite attention to detail really pays off in the final product.

Stop by McMow to see these beautiful pieces, meet the artists and perhaps take one home with you! Help support handmade, local art!

Make it & Take it Classes



 McMow features several "Make it & Take it" classes throughout the year.  What is a "Make it & Take it" class, you ask? It's a class that focuses on smaller projects that you are able to start and finish within one class period.  On August 18th, we held a Make it & Take it class featuring stained glass sun catchers.  The students had a lot of fun mixing glass nuggets, colorful glass and even shells into their sun catchers!  All materials are provided in these classes and they are very affordable! We like to feature holiday themed Make it & Take it classes, allowing you to decorate your homes with your new handmade goodies or even give them as gifts!  Visit www.mcmow.com and see what upcoming Make it & Take it classes we have on our schedule!  And as always, if you have a class idea you would like to share with us so that we may teach it- please do so!

Gina Rhodes, a student at McMow, became hooked on glass ever since taking Beginner’s Stained Glass with us this past Spring.  She has since signed up for and taken Beginner’s Mosaic, Intermediate Mosaic, Beginning Torch work and the Mixed Media class where she could learn a new medium- fusing!  She was able to take the knowledge she learned in her stained glass classes and create a beautiful stained glass piece featuring fused elements! We are so proud of Gina and all the beautiful pieces she has created with us! Students like her make teaching art glass so much fun!  Check out her beautiful work!
