The Beauty of Hand Blown Glass

Can Anything Match the Beauty of Hand Blown Glass Jewelry?

7/29/2009 1:03:01 PM

Humans have been adorning themselves with jewelry of various types almost from the time that Man first learned to walk erect. It's no secret why women, and sometimes men, wear jewelry; it's beautiful. To me, one of the reasons why any piece of jewelry is beautiful is because it's unique rather than being one of thousands of identical pieces. I guess that's why I'm so... Read More

Glass Vases and Beautiful Flowers Do Much for a Room

7/13/2009 2:29:20 PM

Glass vases bring as much beauty to a bouquet of flowers or just sitting empty on a coffee or end table. Fortunately for my family, I love leaded glass vases because of their exquisite beauty and have an entire cabinet filled with them, not to mention what I keep on the furniture for decoration.

Glass Vases

Glass vases are beautiful. They come in several shapes and designs and I love them. Whenever I want to give flowers to a friend or relative, I find myself putting just as much thought into the glass vases as I do the flowers themselves. Depending on the occasion or event, I choose glass vases appropriate for the recipient.

I think flowers are awesome and love... Read More

Starting a blown glass collection.

7/6/2009 2:11:41 PM

I never considered my self a collector of blown glass objects but when i think of all the different pieces of blown glass I have I guess it could qualify as a collection. Many of my blown glass pieces I have actually watched the artist create which is cool. Two of my favorite pieces are table lamps built with solid brass base's and hand painted. I know one of the painters... Read More

Collect Glass Vases

I love to collect glass vases. Being from Texas, I love yellow roses and there are always some that can be found throughout my home. Glass vases can be shaped in many designs and I have several unique ones placed in eye catching places.
