Friday November 5, 2021 Update

Well we survived Halloween and the new month is here! We are adjusting to our new space nicely and feeling refreshed in the remodeled space. It was a lot of work, and there is still more to do, but we are happy with the results. Plus, the last weekend of the Escondido Renaissance Faire is this weekend, along with the Carlsbad Street Fair on Saturday! It is so exciting to see events coming back.

We were able to reuse our tabletop made of rain glass as a skylight for our…skylight! Plus, some types of art glass doors are on display right as you walk in! Plus, we have a brand new sliding glass patio door to let the fresh air in!

Friday April 7, 2021 Update

It has been over a year, but in California we can go back to theme parks this month! We would love to make an art glass roller coaster themed panel - not something you see too often and our designers LOVE unusual and creative requests! For those curious, we have a lot of our art glass on this site, but you can check out Art Glass Overlay here and see our site dedicated to all the art glass we do! Get inspired, see our work, and let us know how we can add art glass to your life!

Art glass covers many things- not just stained glass, but also lead and bevel, cast glass, and sandblasted glass.

Stained glass and lead and bevel (or leadlight) are in the same realm as far as art glass goes and have many overlaps. We think of stained glass as colorful, but it can just feature clear glass and lead lines such as leadlight along with including clear bevels (as lead and bevel implies). Sometimes this is called clear stained glass. This overlap can be confusing, but just let us know what you are looking for and we can create something to match your needs.

Cast glass takes a super heated sheet of glass and presses it into a mold. The designs are pressed into the glass leaving their detailed depressions. We have options of repeating cast glass designs, or we can create custom scenes in clear glass. These make amazing doors for showers or offices.

Sandblasted glass is glass etched with a high powered blast of sand. There will be a frosted design with glass or mirror as the negative space or vise versa. These are great for logos or signs, family crests, floral designs, unusual designs, and more. Our designers work with our clients to create the designs that will be used for sandblasting, which means we can create anything that looks good as a silhouette on your glass or mirror.

Art glass is our designers passion and where owner Penny started in the glass world (35+ years of experience!) But don’t think our designs are stuck in the past - we pay homage to the classics, create modern works, create weird works, and create what our clients love in glass!

Some fun while we are quarantined
