Sconces, vases, bowls, orbs, spheres and many other one of a kind works in glass. The shop is run by a husband and wife team, Willo and Ember who are both working glass blowers. Live demonstrations and works being created are always going on during their normal business day.

I commissioned a piece of art for a buddies birthday present. When I presented the reference photo…read morethe individual was very confident they could produce this art.

I would say save your money and take it to a studio where they have a more realistic view of their talents and/or a more honest business practice. Pic included for your viewing pleasure!

It's extremely unfortunate that this bead store is nice .

Their customer service was terrible and the slam to the recipe & pen was completely uncalled for . I didn't wanna ruin this experience for my daughter so I kept my cool. If i was alone I would have walked out the store and spended my money somewhere else . I definitely wouldn't ever come back or recommend this place to anyone . Do better

I love that octopus, which sits on a small cabinet next to the wire sculpture Tammy commissioned for us for our wedding anniversary in September of the same year. You can see photos of them together next to the telephone. They give me pleasure whenever I look at them. I got out of Pot-Pourri w/o buying anything more, despite the wonderful selection and huge temptation.
