We are very pleased to announce the return of Master glass blower, Thomas Ziesmer to The Frame Workshop in Appleton, Wisconsin on November 18th 2011. Thomas last visited The Frame Workshop in 2007 and travels to the United States from Neustadt, Germany, representing the world renowned firm, Inge-glas® of Germany.
Thomas is an exceptionally talented artisan who has been trained in the centuries old and traditional art form, the production of mouth blown and hand painted glass Christmas ornaments.

| Regardless if his projects are free blown or molded, Thomas' artistic ability is a performance which enthralls both young and old during this evening where he shares his skill in creating mouth blowing ornaments.
In addition to his appearances throughout the United States, Thomas has demonstrated in Australia, Europe and Asia. Besides his native language, German, Thomas speaks English fluently.
Following his glass blowing demonstrations, Mr. Ziesmer will be available to sign the 2011 Reflector Event Ornament which will be the fourth reflector ornament created exclusively for these special tours across the United States.
