Wine Stopper Collection is UP!
Many of the wine stoppers are now online on GlassSculpture.org. I have still about 30 of the "Classical" style to polish and then photograph, but there are some real beauties already up. It seemed to take longer to
More Amazing Wine Stoppers
OK. How much fun are these???? This one is one of my favorites today. It's on the larger side, nearly 2 1/2 inches wide, with blues, creams and some whispies of purple floating through. It's just outright gorgeous under a light or in the sun. Wow!
The Trouble Is….
I threw my shoulder out this past week. I have pulled muscles before, but this was just excruciating. Still not quite sure what exactly I did, but wow was it sore! I couldn't raise my arm, nor turn my head and my entire right side was aching with a splitting axe going through my right eyeball.

I Get To Blow Glass Today!! WooHooOOOoo!!!
I don't get to blow glass very often, so when I do, it's a real treat.
But wait, if I like it so much, why don't I do it more often? Well, if I ONLY blew glass, I'd do it every day (or most days...). BJ and I are very diversified though. Along with the glass, we paint, build sculptures (out of the glass we blow), build furniture, websites
