FODDER!

Fodder, Harrogate

Glassprimitif fused glass birdies, hearts and lightcatchers are now for sale at Fodder in Harrogate! 

Fodder is a shop selling and supporting local farmers and rural businesses within Yorkshire and has a lovely cafe serving local foods too.  It's just on the corner of The Great Yorkshire Showground and is well worth a visit. I hope you will go and see for yourself (and perhaps buy some groovy glass).

Love Glass, Love Pinterest

 Duncan McClellan, glass artist

I am absolutely addicted to Pinterest and enjoy browsing for inspirational glass.  My favourite board, Glass I Love, showcases mostly hand blown or cast glass rather than fused glass because I have immense respect for glass blowers (and a bit of envy too).

I also use Pinterest to promote and catalogue my own glass and I try to remember to upload every piece of glass I have posted on-line. 

Glass Commissions

Kelbrook 2013

This weekend (Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd November) I shall be at Kelbrook and Sough Village Hall as part of the Art and Craft Fair. This is a really surprising fair because, although it is in a village hall, the quality of the makers is really very good.  There's also excellent cakes and tea there too.  So if you are in the Barnoldswick, Earby district please call into Kelbrook for an afternoon treat.   Or why not join the Event page on Facebook?
