Does anyone know of any Canadian glassblowing suppliers? I'm looking to get a set of BoroTruView 3.0 Lampworking Glasses 33 and a National 3A-B hand torch, and some accessories, and all the suppliers I can find are in the US or UK (and the UK ones don't ship to Canada). Would rather avoid huge tariffs.

Edit: Other non-USA glassblowing suppliers that ship to Canada also welcome!

Here's a little something I made recently. A 19-inch long necklace of clear glass beads I rolled in colored enamels while white hot, then encased in more clear glass. It's in my Ko-fi shop, here: https://ko-fi.com/s/e53cc19c1d #handmade #MastoArt #hotglass #lampworking #flameworking #artyoucanwear #Studioglass #glassart #glassartist

SOLD! A new piece in my Ko-fi shop. I used semi opaque shades of light blue glass to make the beads, then rolled them in blue, purple and green shades of enamel powder while white hot, putting them briefly back in the torch flame to fuse and melt. https://ko-fi.com/s/04b320188d #handmade #glass #beads #necklace #jewelry #hotglass #lampworking #artyoucanwear #glassart #glassartist

Another pair of earrings, this with transparent yellow and semi opaque canary beads I made at the torch, and some brass pendants I cut out and hammered. In my Ko-fi shop. https://ko-fi.com/s/8fc53454b6 #handmade #HotGlass #MastoArt #lampworking #beads #glass #glassbeads #jewelry #design #buyartfromartists

The only thing that's as much fun as working with some new colors is opening the box! #Lampwork #lampworking #lampworkbeads #lampworkglass #torchwork #flameworking #hotglass #artyoucanwear #effetre #morettiglass #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #handmadeglass #handmadeglassbeads #glassbeads #glassbeadsjewelry #beads #studioglass #artglass #glassart #glassartist

A couple of new bits 'n bobs made from some of my lampwork glass beads and enameled copper pendants. Combining glass with enamel is always good. Not in my Etsy shop, but useful to have available for markets, festivals, etc. #handmade #MastoArt #lampworking #glassart #glassartist #HotGlass #enamel

I've used a transparent smoke colored glass to make these beads, along with champagne and white overlaid with dark purple that appears black in all but bright natural light, and some opaque earth tones. I've also used two-part hand held presses, tong presses and a corduroy marver to create the unusual shapes and textures https://www.etsy.com/listing/1791491981/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=66f2724b349e4dadf7b157d80fd4793f83aa187b%3A1791491981&click_sum=287971db&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #lampworking #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #HotGlass #glassart #glassartist #christofmaupin #pastpresentart #athensohio #madeinohio #handmade #MastoArt

Baking soda can be used to create a texture to glass beads or other glass objects. Far left, the only effect is blending of two colors around the equator of the bead, which retains it's shine. Further right, the blending is more thorough, with a "metallic" surface appearance. Far right, bubbly surface from bursting bubbles, like some cratered distant moon. #Beads #MastoArt #handmade #handmadegass #lampworking #glassart #glassartist #HotGlass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #AthensOhio

A new piece I've made using transparent light rose, clear, and light yellow glass, over which I've applied enamels in pale pink, orange, beige and yellow. The focal bead is clear glass with added opaque threads and orange enamel. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1573296006/handmade-lampwork-torchwork-glass-bead?click_key=153777117b994c8669f1a80e50dc8892a50d746e%3A1573296006&click_sum=9dcbfd12&ref=shop_home_active_13&frs=1 #hotglass #beads #glassbeads #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #lampwork #lampworking #artyoucanwear #holidayshopping #buyhandmade #buyartfromartists #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #glassart #glassartist #salemoregon

I periodically sort through my leftovers - excess beads from a project, some a bit wonky, experiments, etc. - and stitch together a complete necklace or bracelet. Here's the latest example: feels a bit ancient, like something excavated. The lentil shaped focal bead has a slice of Millefiori cane melted in. #handmade #MastoArt #handmadeglass #handmadebeads #lampworkglass #lampworkbeads #lampworking #millefiori #crazyquilt #artyoucanwear #studioglass #christofmaupin #pastpresentarts #salemoregon

What a great day I had yesterday, teaching this little group of students the basics of lampworking and glass bead making at the amazing Hopewell Hub in Hopewell, OR. Not only were they eager and very focused, they looked super cool in their matching protective eyewear! #glass #glassart #lampworking #flameworking #torchworking #hotglass #students #teaching #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin #oregonart #oregonartists #MastoArt

Something new in my shop. Lots of color. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1448475696/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-necklace-19?click_key=be16ec3822810577dc53d1b7f6ebceabfaa52c68%3A1448475696&click_sum=dd5a92ec&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #hotglass #handmadeglass #glassart #glassartist #beads #glassbeads #lampworkbeads #lampworking #glassbeadnecklace #glassbeadjewelry #artyoucanwear #artforsalebyartist #oregon #pacificnorthwest #etsy

I rarely put earrings in my Etsy shop, on account of their affordability. But I make great numbers of them for street fairs, festivals, etc. These 2 are new. The hearts I made on a small ❤️ shaped steel mandrel, while for the bronze discs - which I avoided making exactly the same - I made tiny beads of yellow and orange Murano glass. #earrings #handmade #handmadeearrings #handmadejewelry #hotglass #lampworking #lampworkbeads #madeinoregon #salemoregon #christofmaupin #artyoucanwear #MastoArt

I couldn't resist making another miniature sculpture. This is even smaller, measuring just 1.4 inches tall. The flower can be removed, and the jug worn on a chain. The jug was made on a mandrel, just like a bead, but closed on one end. The flower was made off-mandrel. All Murano glass. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1436412367/handmade-lampwork-blue-topaz-miniature?click_key=d684d0e48f7e648ef2026874d540092f1272100c%3A1436412367&click_sum=c9633274&ref=shop_home_active_1&frs=1 #glass #beads #glassminiature #miniaturesculpture #hotglass #glassart #glassartist #hotglass #lampworkglass #lampworking #pacificnorthwest #christofmaupin #salemoregon

It may be unusually warm in some parts of the country, but here in the #pacificnorthwest we're still getting plenty of snow and rain, with more on the way. So here's something more green and Spring-like: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1147346688/green-glass-handmade-beaded-necklace-on?click_key=22acd895ee47d8901bdfdf853634375745c3a3f0%3A1147346688&click_sum=027c4b29&ref=shop_home_active_31&frs=1 #MastoArt #glass #beads #Lampworking #hotglass #necklace #jewelry #handmade #Etsy

This is all about red! Murano glass with added frit and threads of clear, white and yellow: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1371197261/handmade-lampwork-glass-bead-necklace?click_key=bcd31153a361739c9d5eac98d9ac665695e2f638%3A1371197261&click_sum=fe86dd0f&ref=shop_home_active_5&frs=1 #glass #GlassArt #GlassArtist #MastoArt #Lampworking #HotGlass #RedGlass #MuranoGlass #Etsy #oregon #pacificnorthwest

A piece that combines variously colored powdered enamels encased under clear glass with variously colored frit. The results can be somewhat unpredictable, which is part of the fun. It requires some discipline to prevent the enamels from burning / discoloring before they can be encased, and prevent the frit from spreading out and losing color intensity. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1359211144/handmade-lampwork-glass-necklace-of?click_key=21e5d0b78498c89ea0d0ddb8b7c00bd8145f253e%3A1359211144&click_sum=7b87ec17&ref=shop_home_active_29&frs=1 #glass #enamel #frit #HotGlass #lampworking #torch #GlassArt #GlassArtist #oregon #SalemOregon #ChristofMaupin #MastoArt

Two shades of red, two shades of blue, clear, a few slices of millefiori cane, a dash of colorful frit, and a sprinkling of enamel powder on this lentil-shaped focal bead. All Murano glass. Happy Friday! 🔥.

I have one more show left for 2022. Any Salem, OR area peeps who missed me at the Etsy Sellers show this past weekend can find me here this coming Saturday, all details on the flyer. I'll be in booth D16, in the big dining room. See you then... #curatedmarket #handmademarket #holidaymarket #holidayshopping #holidaygifts #glass #beads #Jewelry #hotglass #lampworking #glassart #glassartist #salemoregon #pacificnorthwest #oregonart #oregonartist #artforsalebyartist #pastpresentarts #christofmaupin

This is a piece from about 18 months ago. Still in my inventory. Big, chunky beads of opaque light purple, with swirls of semi-opaque white and dark blue, with some bits of copper frit added. I should use this combination again!
