#Diabetes UK (Cymru) Photo crystals

Today I sent off the #Diabetes UK (Cymru) Photo crystals and blue dragons we have been working on to Cardiff . Really nice commission. Here's a picture of a photo crystal with a blue Welsh Dragon :) A good #diabetic charity to create glass dragons for:

Crystal Clear Glass Miner

I was asked if we could do a crystal glass Miner figurine. so this is what we came up with... Battery pack, helmet, pick axe and other goodies like arms and legs.

Mines are for miners.
Dwarves like mines to!
EEEk non PC miners joke A Chinese guy applied for a job in a Welsh coal mine and was put in charge of the supplies. One day, Di Jones and Aled Williams were walking down the main tunnel in the lowest level. All of a sudden Di says,"Hey. Have you seen that Chinese bloke, I'm running short of candles. I haven't seen him since started."
The Aled says,"No, I haven't seen him either."
Right then, the Chinese man jumped out of a dirt mound right in front of them and yelled,"Supplies!!"

Glass Flying Witch on a Broom.

When I was up in Edinburgh I visited an exhibition in Modern 2 about witches in art. So inspired here is a flying glass witch I made the other day which came out of the staining room today. The loop on the hair is so she can hang and look as if she's flying.

Getting closer to Halloween. Here's a question to ponder next time you see a witch... 
Why do witches have stiff joints ?They get broomatism!

How does a witch go faster when she's flying?
She goes broom, BROOM :)

Glass pig on it's back laughing :)

The other day Roger (A guy I work with here at the Glassblobbery) took a glass pig on it's back laughing to photograph. Here are the results:

Hopefully the witch I made today will be out of the kiln and stained over the next few days.
I'll post a picture when it's finnished.

Glass Red Griffin

I was asked if I could make a glass griffin. The last ones I made were yellows for The Midland Bank (now part of HSBC) So to be different I made a red glass Griffin....
