From now until the end of the year i usually do a lot of art & craft faires on the weekends. Even though i'm getting married in a month, i couldn't say no since i look forward to it every year. (Mostly because i miss blowing glass!) Over the past week, i've been in the hot shop as much as possible creating all sorts of fun things. My favorites for Autumn are glass pumpkins! They are just so much fun to make, and i get to experiment with all kind of colors! (nobody said a pumpkin has to be green & orange) I have a few on my etsy site for now, and will be putting more up tonight. I've also been working on some recycled beer bottle necklaces. It feels good to be creative during this busy and exciting time in my life.
I'm also going to my cousins wedding in Canton, Ohio this weekend. So we decided to make a vase for a gift. I picked these colors that react beautifully when they touch each other, and swirled the colors together. It turned out pretty cool, every side has different colors on it!

I just found your store (already stopped by and made a purchase!) and now found your blog. My daughter has always been enthralled with blown glass ever since she was a little girl. Your pumpkins and vases are beautiful!
