Mercy Health Partners Foundation Nautical Mile Auction Creation

I recently created this gorgeous cobalt platter in the signature Sassy Glass Studio open-weave design for the Mercy Health Partners Foundation Nautical Mile Auction this weekend. This is a very striking piece and in addition to the cobalt glass, there is iridescent cobalt and clear glass creating a sparkling surface giving it the effect of the deep blue sea. Very nautical indeed!

Platter measures approximately 14 X 18 and retails for $125.

Welcome to Sassy Glass Studio's studio...finally!

My main work space-window looks out to the kiln area and to another window to the outside world

Good news! Sassy Glass Studio has moved!

Welcome to Sassy Glass Studio's new studio!!

The studio is an absolute upgrade over working out of the breakfast nook. Lots of space for all the glass, molds, equipment and not one, but two work spaces. There is even room for all the show inventory, tent, and accessories. No more creating a piece and praying that I don't drop it while I traversed the non-existent steps to get out to the kilns. I have spent some time decorating and Sassifying the space, and although I am nowhere near done, I am just excited beyond all belief to have my own space to work in. No more distractions, no more interruptions, no more shards of glass all over the house. The biggest bonus of all is my little window that opens up right next to the fish pond (I am partially under the ground in the studio) so I can listen to the waterfall while I toil in my non-air conditioned and aptly named "sweatshop".
