So, just to keep you all up to date - I took a bit of a break from glassblowing in June/July to save up and prep for the wedding (in August). The break was kind of compounded by my unanticipated (but fortunately timed) departure from GreatCall. And, although I am gainfully employed once again - this time as a consultant - I haven't had the opportunity to get back into the studio. At this point, based on budget and where I want to spend the time I'm not working, I'll likely be continuing the sabbatical from glass for a bit except for a couple of special project requests. So, that said - if there's something special you'd like made for a wedding, birthday or Christmas gift, please contact me so that I can schedule some studio time!
Thanks again to all of you for your support, encouragement, and friendship!
Best,
Tom

What started out as a little side hobby, a creative outlet, has become a small custom art glass business. You can find my online store at Etsy.com

As the owner of a small (ok, very VERY small) art-based business, I must say that I loved this....
Just found out that one of the two orders I received this week was from one of the attendees of the Dallas event! Sweetness!
Added pics from the corporate event for Towers Watson in Dallas, at the arboretum, for which I did "the 100 flowers project" - AND, the feedback from the vases I supplied for the UC Irvine Med Center Nurse Awards was great, and resulted in a possible new custom order for a retirement gift! When it rains... =)

These pics are of the 100 flowers custom ordered for a Corporate event being held at the Dallas Arboretum on May 15th, 2012...there are a few more than 100, but hey, "hundred flower project" sounds groovier.

So, if you'd like to participate in the creative process, watch (and comment!) on the progression of logo ideas for the business!
By the way, stay tuned, as I'll be posting up a promotion code for my Etsy site - use it and score a deal on hand-blown art glass (and as with last year, the proceeds will go to the ADA Walk!)
Hey friends, once again, I'm part of the GreatCall team of walkers and fundraisers for the ADA's Step Out To Stop Diabetes Walk - go to my personal page below if you'd like to donate!
