As everything is fragile, and ' Once Broken, Considered Sold' rule applies here. However, staff will allow you to handle some exhibits. First of all, The Ibox Museum of Glass is not only a museum and foremost a concept store, that specialised in various glass making service and products. For instance, decorative items, clocks, painting, key chains, jewellery, accessories, mugs, pendants, photo frames and holders. The creative glass art pieces are displayed at this compact museum offering custom-made souvenir. Every item in the museum is for sale. However you are just as welcome to purely view all the various exhibits, as all their products are neatly displayed in categories.
Hmm, IBOX Musuem is also one of a kind museum holds the Malaysia Book of Records as the first glass museum in the countrry. Besides this, the highlight at the IBOX museum and known for completing the Longest Glass Batik Painting in the world. Over 12 metres long and 1.5 metres high, not just the creative usage of glass, also the manufacturing of glass is actually so interesting. The Longest Glass Batik Painting is also featured in the Malaysia Book of Record. Sound like very great right?! And we are fortunate that we able to catch the glass artists of Ibox Museum at work - Bowie.
We start our photo session here.
The staff help us to take all kind of angle of photos, and guide us to every glass object and help us to take the photos.

After about 1 hour of photo-taking, we are treated to DIY glass souvenir. We are provided with a piece of glass to experiment on free.
I'm not creative tho, I don't really know what shall i draw for this LOL.
We using a markers to design and colour on our glass souvenir.
Then we will use the pen-knives to carve our designs.
We only needed to paste the stickers onto the glass and then peel out portions of the stickers and they will use sand-blasting techniques to 'reprint' the design onto the glass. We only needed to paste the stickers onto the glass and then peel out portions of the stickers.
