Friday March 24, 2023 Update

Some more rain and work on freeway left things a little quiet this week around Carlsbad Village. Today, the sun is shining and it is a lovely Friday!

We have been working on repairing damaged glass and crystal items by smoothing down rough parts, grinding down rims in chipped glasses to give them smooth edges again, and using our UV curing glass adhesive to but pieces back together. When something is important to you, it’s nice to have it in one piece even if it shows some little battle scars! Check out our repair page here to see some of our work and follow us on social media at the bottom of the page to see even more!

Friday August 14, Update

We were so happy with the response to our commercial; thanks to all our fans!

It’s been a bit of a warm week, but we still see our neighbors enjoying the village safely.

It’s been a pleasure to help our clients at the shop restoring heirlooms, revitalizing bathrooms, and improving windows. We have more glass repairs coming in with wonderful stained glass lampshades, cabinet doors, and mirrors.

Speaking of mirrors, if you are looking for a safer option, we can add a backing called CAT II. This backing is extra insurance for the possibility of a mirror falling and breaking. While it most likely will not prevent the break, it will keep the often dangerous shards from falling apart and to the floor. It’s a useful feature and perfect if pets and young children will be around!

The Shoppe also has more stained glass squares to cut for our glass blowing friends! You can check out their website at https://www.barrioglassworks.com/

Everyone at the Shoppe is excited for more local artists, we cannot wait until Barrio Glassworks is open!

With that, have a great weekend everyone!
