Slumping Gone Wrong

 

I spent an entire Saturday prepping glass and plaster/silica cores to be slumped into flowery vases / candle holders. I checked on them after an hour and found everything broken or knocked over.

The issue? I didn't think about drying out the plaster cores, so they shocked the glass. Otherwise it might have worked!
