My comments aren't showing up for the last 2 weeks.
Is anyone else having this problem?
What to do?
Doc Hilary you don't respond when I send comments to theblenkoproject@aol
What to do?
Can't remember who said
"Pictures help us form a mental mold"
but quote is appropriate here.
Blenko photos inspire me to surround myself with beautiful color and or to buy Blenko.

Someone wrote to ask about ornaments / where in WV to buy.
Why not make your own?
Hilary check this out.

NEAT WORKSHOP IDEA - UrbanGlass is extending the idea of ornament making (Dec. 2 & 3, two 1 day classes) back a couple of months to making Glass Pumpkins (Oct. 21 & 22, 1 day each) which in a B&W picture are grooved bulging sides with a thick twisted stem, presumably orange and green. They charge $200 for the 5 hour day. Besides these two obvious candidates, imagination could extend the exercise back through the year. Other possibilities include footballs, fruit and corn for autumn, baseballs and watermelon (whole) for summer, and of course, eggs and hearts for Easter.
Some time ago you ask about local or WV schools with glass classes.
When I was growing up
Weston, (Lewis County High School) had a Glass class and program in 1981 - 1982.
Complete with a furnace and all.
I bet there were others in the state.
Anyone else remember glassmaking classes?
