My San Antonio (Texas Hill Country
It's not every day that a TV crew comes looking to tell your story.
Earlier this week, that day arrived for artist-entrepreneurs Holly and Paul Simonette—a married couple who are just two years into their glassblowing venture in the Texas Hill Country.
The Simonettes own and operate Enchanted Fredericksburg Ranch, a glassblowing studio and art gallery that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic and recently attracted the attention of "The Texas Bucket List." On May 6, the show filmed a segment on their business, thanks to a recommendation from Visit Fredericksburg TX, according to Holly. They offer classes and demonstrations for visitors and locals who want to learn more about the art form.
Their segment on "The Texas Bucket List" is expected to air in the fall of 2025 or spring of 2026.
