Heart of Glass - Blenko Glass

Blenko Glass is a West Virginia treasure that spans generations. Nothing symbolizes the state of West Virginia better or more beautifully than Blenko Glass. We will discuss current and former craftsmen and designers and how important it is that Blenko and West Virginia glass be appreciated and valued by the younger generation.

Valentine's Day is Fast Apporaching!

If you have seen any wonderful 'made in WVa' gifts, please send photo and address of the shop.
Beginning Feb 1 we will post daily ' made in WVa gifts' for V-Day!
Someone told me Jeff Fetty made a glass bear w/heart in honor of Valentines' Day that will go on sell at the Fenton Gift Shop this week. I'll try to get a photo and post.
The BLENKO GLASS gift shop has a big selection of red glass. Angie and Diane have decorated the gift shop with hearts, Ruby Glass is my favorite - its more expensive for Blenko to produce ruby glass. . .but Blenko's red glass is unique and the most vivid you will find. Again I'll ask for photos to post. hjh

I'd want the bear that had a lump of cold black coal as his heart ... but that's just me projecting onto Valentine's Day. :-)
