Repairing glass items with UV curing adhesive is one of the ways we can help put keepsakes back together. We spend time to carefully layout the “puzzle” and put any available pieces back together. The look of the cracks may lesson, and some fine ones may even disappear into the repair.
Below we have a before and after of one of our repairs along with a gallery below of our finished repairs!
It is a somber day for remembrance. There is a lot going on for everyone (too much for many), and we are all trying to do the best that we can. Much has changed from 19 years ago, and much is changing in 2020. We wish for everyone to be kind to each other, help others when you can, and try to make the best of the situation. It is easier said then done, but we need to keep moving forward.
In more regular Shoppe news, we managed to work through our large amount of glass and crystal repairs. They are still coming in and we are shipping many out to our long distance clients! We have had more of an influx of cabinet doors as well, including some all glass ones. Our cabinet doors usually are glass inserts that we put in the center of your door. This can be stained glass overlay, a textured glass, colored glass, or other glass options. Check out our cabinet door section here!
We have mentioned a lot about the crystal and glass repairs we have been doing, but it’s worth mentioning how many of these items are shipped to us to be repaired! We have clients from many different states that find out what we do and send us the item for further review and repair. While we cannot manufacture glass for these repairs, we have a UV curing adhesive to put broken pieces back together. It dries clear and does not yellow while helping soften the look of the cracks. In the case of chipped rims and bases, we sand and smooth just past the chip leaving a smooth surface. Clients can email (GlassAndMirror@iCloud.com) or text [(760)390-2273] us photos of their broken items and we can give them an estimate on the repair cost and if it can be done! We’re glad we can help our clients and they are finding us from across the country.
We are still keeping with the current protocol and Carlsbad itself has an online resource for what is open and what requirements there are during Covid-19. Check it out here: https://www.carlsbadca.gov/services/depts/fire/emergency/coronavirus.asp
Stay safe (and COOL!) and have a wonderful weekend!
