Just dropped.Tree ornaments used to be tiny works of art. Ours still are. The year this place opened – 1925- glassblowers were already perfecting this craft. Nothing about the process has changed. HOW THESE ARE MADE BLOWS MY MIND:A glassblower blows molten glass into a clay mold to make the share- then the ornament is silvered on the inside (using a chemical bath that makes it glow) All the details are then hand-painted and glittered one layer at a time (and there are MANY). Then theyre fired again to cure the paint.Its a super intense, skill-based craft (one mistake and it shatters). Thats why they feel less like a Christmas tree decoration & more like a tiny heirloom.To celebrate our 100th Christmas at camp, every ornament in our Centennial Collection is tagged with a tiny engraved badge, wrapped in our lake map, boxed & sealed with our anniversary badge. Were releasing 11 designs, in limited quantities. Were admittedly partial to old stuff, but we still believe the most beautiful things are always the ones made slowly, worth keeping. Just launched a limited edition on our just updated online camp store,And weve set the other half of the inventory aside for holiday party on Dec 6th from 10-2 at @bureauoftourism 1429 Grand Ave- see you there!
