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.

Blenko Glass in Milton, W.Va. The Best Easter Baskets contain BLENKO Glass

 
Each year Blenko Glass makes a selection of Easter Eggs and Easter Rabbits .
 
Under the helm of Dean Six , Blenko has offered opportunity to make
very own Easter Basket, and Easter Eggs.   While its too late for the
"make your own" this year.  You can mark your calendar or join www.blenkoglass.com and
you'll receive note of this class and all others.
 
If making your own doesn't sound like something you want to try.  The Blenko Glass gift shop has a
wide variety of Easter Eggs,  Easter Bunnies, and Easter Baskets. 
 
My Family always thought of BLENKO as a destination.   When I was a child, we fed the ducks
and geese.   On one occasion I brought a fishing rod, but had no success.  We would
spend the morning at Blenko .  Then,
either bring a lunch to eat at the lake or stop at one of the'  Milton restaurants, the remainder of
the day would be spent at the 'shops of Milton' or the Milton Flea Market where my Dad
would be seeking Blenko from the 50-60s. 
 
Blenko is the only US  manufacturer of hand rolled sheet glass,  it has over 100 years of
experience in the art of glass making - and its a day trip for most of WVa and much of Ohio
and Kentucky.   Introduce your kids and g-kids to Blenko Glass.
