Blown Glass Art

Hand blown glass art.?

Step by step. What’s the best way to start beads then pendants, then sculptures, vases? What’s your opinion?

If you are asking how to start each of those, there a book covering the topics. If you are asking if that sequence of learning is the best, then one has to point out that the first three are more likely to be done with a torch while vases and most sculptures are more like done with furnace glass (which is what I do http://users.ticnet.com/mikefirth/what-can.htm
I see you have another question on what is the best torch, which makes it likely you want to start that way. Torch work is much less costly to set up and requires less space. Although some large pieces have been done with hand worked torches, most torch work is on a small scale by those who prefer detail. Furnace work mostly begins about the size of the largest common torch worked pieces and goes up from there.
