Crazy Custom's

At least once during every Art Show, someone will ask me if I can do a custom piece. The answer is usually a cautious "YES", depending on what they have in mind. I have discovered that there are some pretty, shall we say, creative, people out there! The first thing I do is make sure I understand what the client has in mind. Things like color, size and theme. Then I have to make sure they understand what can and can not be done in glass. And lastly, and this is the fun part, create a design that will give vision to their ideas. 

Here are a few of my favorites. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them.


For a lady that sells Premier Jewelry. She wanted a card holder that would showcase her display.

                                                                 

 
For a Baby shower.  The theme of the baby's room was the Jungle. I went with a Mommy and Baby Giraffe.














This is a custom piece for a group of Heart Attack survivors who now have pacemakers, or what they call "Wired Hearts".

 



A couple had a friend that was taking his vows to become a priest. They wanted something special to commemorate this very sacred event.

  

A friend of mind wanted to have something special made for her Pharmacist, who has been a huge help and a good friend during some very serious health issues she has had to deal with.  












A client asked me for a special Baby Gift. Apparently the parents are decorating the nursery with the alphabet and everyone was assigned a letter. Her's was the letter "J". She told me that the Father to be was a fisherman and could I incorporate fishing in the letter. This is what I came up with and she loved it. 



It's fun to think outside of the box.  And I get some of my best ideas from my customers and clients. I hope to be able to bring you more of my custom pieces as the year continues. 

Thanks for stopping by.
