Store Closed but Still Making Glass Flowers



We closed the store in August, took a little time off, but I am still making my garden glass flowers. I sold a bunch in December by putting them on a email. I have an order for 50 this spring, so I'm putting together 100 so the customer can choose their favorites. I plan on putting 10 together each week, so I'm going to put them on this blog (with prices), do an occassional email with the new ones, and put some in the new ArtisTree. (18 Stewart St, Reno 89501- open Thursday, Friday and Saturdays) Contact me if you have any questions, or any special orders with your own plates. :0} 775 843-7852. Thanks a bunch, Missy
