Craft Class - Join us in making Glass Garden Flowers

A friend walked into my work shop last week and declared that "You have a glass problem!" She jokingly suggested I participate in a 10 step program - immediately!!  I then took her into my studio where I create birdbaths, bird feeders, totems and other glass yard art.  After opening a bottle of red wine, I then showed her how layering is done and how much fun it is to create sparkling art from vintage glass.  She was hooked!!

It was at that moment I realized how much I miss teaching, sharing knowledge and watching others experience the joy that comes from the creation process.

So here we are.  I am offering a craft class where you can treasure hunt through my glass, learn layering techniques to achieve the perfect sparkle and color to showcase your individual style.  Learn about adhesives and mounting.  While enjoying friends and wine.  Details are below.

Are You Attracted to Green?

Green occupies more space in the spectrum visible to the human eye than most colors, and is second only to blue as a favorite color. Green is the pervasive color in the natural world, making it an ideal backdrop in interior design because we are so used to seeing it everywhere.The natural greens, from forest to lime, are seen as tranquil and refreshing, with a natural balance of cool and warm (blue and yellow) undertones. Green is considered the color of peace and ecology. However, there is an “institutional” side to green, associated with illness and government-issued green cards, that conjures up negative emotions, as do the “slimy” or “bilious” greens. How The Color Green Affects Us Physically Soothes Relaxes mentally, as well as physically Helps alleviate depression, nervousness, and anxiety Offers a sense of renewal, self-control, and harmony
