A Bowl Full of Glass

I have a thing for Art Glass.
One of my favorite places is the
International Glass & Bead Company in Claremont, CA.
I haven't been there for quite a while,
as it isn't as convenient since they moved
into the "Packing House".
But they do have some wonderful glass there.
I also enjoy going to the glass blowers
in Benicia, CA,
Especially to go into the "seconds" room -
great bargains there!!!

Here are a few pictures I took this weekend:

These are "Doodads" ~ blobs of glass
that are "leftovers" from blowing glass.

A yummy bowlful of art glass.

Have a lovely week!
