I'm a George Eliot fan - always have been -my favorite Eliot quote is "what I love determines how I love"
George Eliot in her novel 'The Mill on the Floss' wrote about belonging and the different ways groups or families have of 'doing things.'
In my family cherishing handcrafted items, was just something we did. From Tiffany's Finish flatware to the more common WV Glass we're always enjoyed knowing items were handcrafted and we valued the skill of the craftsman.
This is true of most Blenko Glass Collectors - as I'm meeting more Morgan Glass and Viking Glass and Fiesta Collectors - I realize a love of the handcrafted binds us. Instantly we are friends.
Teaching your children, or allowing them to observe you being proud of your State, your family, your Country can bring a big emotional return.
Arrange an end of school year trip for your child or grandchild's class, why not visit BLENKO GLASS http://www.blenkoglass.com/ phone 304 743 9081 to make arrangements for large groups. Teach your children about WV Glass and
other fine products made in WV.

Next question
I will assume you regularly speak with Blenko. In the next conversation
please ask for photos of new items.
Did you ever consider the ministry Hilary?
Some days I feel as if my priest is speaking about Blenko.
