New Gift Idea - Great for ...















... Weddings, Anniversaries,
Birthdays, Birth of New Baby,
Sympathy, Housewarming Gift, Etc.



Today, I am showing my newest gift idea that can easily be given for many occasions. This one is a wedding gift that has been engraved with the couples name and wedding date.

The glass used here is called Rose Garden. I also have an Iris glass that can be seen on my web site and will be shown as on option on my web site as well.

I have given and had requests for similar items to be given for other special occasions with inscriptions provided by my customers: poems, quotes, bible verses. In addition to weddings and anniversaries... I have made them for customers who needed a gift for a birth, a death, a birthday, and more. These are made in a standard size of about 10.5"x16" but can be made to fit other sizes upon request. This premade size is designed to be shipped quickly because the glass is already cut and ready for orders. Each piece of glass, although similar, will be different from the last. Taking a look at the sheet glass on my web site, you will notice that it often differs from one edge of the glass to another. But, it is all beautiful.

This one is framed in beveled glass with green accents.

Let me know if there is a custom gift giving need in your future!

Free Spirit Art Fair & Tecumseh's Holiday Open House

The FREE SPIRIT ART FAIR is this week-end. It is one I have been looking forward to for a while. I have always had a lot of artwork that is spiritual in nature and this show will give me the opportunity to showcase that art.

On Saturday, November 7, 2009 from 10am - 5pm I will be at the Orchard Lake Community Church in Orchard Lake, MI. I have posted a couple of links to web sites and articles about the show, including one that has a map.

I'll be posting some of the new items I have made to get ready for it next week after I have time to relax a little bit again... before starting on the numerous projects that are waiting for me.

TECUMSEH's HOLIDAY OPEN HOUSE is also this week-end. I have a space at Great Ideas Emporium where you can find many of my finished items ready for sale.

On November 6, 7, & 8th visit downtown Tecumseh when they celebrate their annual tradition of Open House. Local merchants will be displaying their holiday specials and savings. On Friday evening join in for the candle light shopping and be sure not to miss the 7:00 pm lighting of Streetscape for the holiday. Saturday and Sunday enjoy live entertainment while doing your shopping.
