Our inaugural Water
Bottle Week is 23- 29 January, 2017. Nothing has become more icon for
Blenko glass, and perhaps for West Virginia glass, than our classic #384
water bottle made since 1938! We have set aside one entire week to celebrate and play with this form.
Blenko will offer Make Your Own water bottle classes, follow us on
social media to learn the registration date, etc.There will be a photo
contest open to the public for images of water bottle collections, water
bottles in use, etc. Two winning photos will be awarded a cash prize
and those images will then be used by Blenko to produce postcards for
sale in the company store. We will have photo opportunities with our
very own living, talking human Water Bottle. Did we mention this is a
FUN event? Special editions of color, new colors, and playful adaptation
of the form will all be offered for sale in the company store. The
event is a must for those who enjoy or love our #384 water bottles.
Almost immediately on the heels of the Water Bottle Week Blenko
celebrates an entire month of The Animal Kingdom. We are making offhand
and dump mouded animals calling upon our past to fill our ark of diverse
critters. We will open our on-site and on-line efforts to populate a
glass zoo at your home Wednesday February 1. Handmade penguins, large
cast walrus, small whales, and on the list goes.
Follow us on
social media to catch sightings of the animals we are making in
anticipation of the event. Plan to visit us in Milton or go on your own
safari on line to bag some Blenko members of the animal kingdom!
Exciting days are in store for you from the hot furnaces of Blenko Glass
and our skilled artisans. Be sure to join us this winter.

#1) We were at the Clay Gala with our WVa friends on Saturday.
99% certain we saw you. Tried to say hello, but you weren't around when we left the photographer.
We all agreed you looked stunning!
#2) If you need help with the blenko project, we can volunteer our IT person.
Thank you for this blog. We all read weekly.
Great Blog! Great Product!
Not certain comment is showing.
We think we saw you on Saturday at Clay Gala, we drove up and went with the CAMC group who bought couple of tables.
You looked stunning.
