Oh the joy of shiny pretty things....  Even when I'm not buying, I'm still shopping because it is such a beautiful experience to just walk through their store.  It's like going to a Chihuly exhibit at DMA, except you can touch things.  They have a wide variety of vases, art pieces, goblets, jewelry, windows, flowers, orbs, paperweights, platters...you will seriously go into sensory overload!  And if you want to touch things, they will give you a set of white gloves at the front desk and let you touch away.

The prices are really affordable.  They feature work from about 300 artists, some of which are fairly notable.  If you get on their mailing list they will send you a little card letting you know when they have a new show.  The goblet show is amazing.  Usually there's wine and cheese on opening night.  And I am all about drinking some wine and touching expensive breakables.  For some unknown reason they are all about letting me.  You break you buy?

Also there's case after case of jewelry.  I love the beads.  I'm not a rich gal, but even I've purchased some jewelry and an urn or two there.

AND...if that's not enough, they have a full service studio for those who aspire to make glass art.  Classes for beginners to experts are available.  

Go check out their website and see the eye candy and the schedules for classes and event.  If you need someone to go with, let me know.  We can eat Gloria's afterwards!
