It is entitled "A Mothers Wish" and is adapted to glass from an original artwork by my soon to be 12 year old niece Kelsey McCallum. Kelsey has been living with insulin dependent diabetes since the age of 9.

We are currently working on an online store page where we will offer smaller items for sale via credit/debit cards and Paypal directly from our site. Some will be one of a kind or limited edition, and some we will be continuously available.
Some of the items will be stained glass window hangings, etched glass wall mirrors and coasters, fused glass bowls, plates and coasters. etc.
We are trying to set up a shopping cart system but the process is slow due to my lack of knowledge when it comes to most things computer, and that we must keep on schedule with custom work orders.
Here are some pictures of some of what will be available.
Hearts mirror and coasters.
I am very proud of these as they were designed by my 6 (or 6 and 7/8 as she recently informed me) year old daughter.
Some other designs of mirrors and coasters.
Fused glass pieces
Stained glass window hangings.
Pieces like these are always available for order, until we get the online store up and running please call or email for pricing and shipping info.
