Beary Lampwork in Seri Kembangan
It’s a common saying that creating art can work wonders on the soul. But let’s be honest – we can’t all be modern-day Picassos. Lucky for us, there are beginner-friendly craft workshops in Klang Valley that let us try our hand at being creative and leave with a masterpiece to boot.
You’ve likely heard of handmade ring workshops. Here’s a spot we found that lets you make your very own bespoke ring, but uniquely from delicate glass – Beary Lampwork, a glassmaking studio with hands-on classes for both ring- and flower-making in Seri Kembangan.

While melting glass with a torch or lamp to create crafts might sound new to most, it’s a popular artistic pursuit in Japan. At Beary Lampwork, just a stone’s throw from Amerin Mall in Seri Kembangan, you can try this out in their 1-day workshops that span about 2 hours.
They are operated by the same founders behind Beary Potter Studio.

Two glass-based workshops are offered here: Glass Ring-Making and Glass Flower-Making. They let you craft your very own stunning glass ring or delicate flower from scratch, while you learn more about the techniques that transform molten glass into masterpieces.
