JEWELRY FROM THE LARAMIE BRIDAL EXPO

Here are photos of some of the jewelry that was modeled at the Laramie Bridal Expo on Sunday, February 22, 2009. The pieces looked simply amazing with the gowns! If you're interested in having custom pieces made for weddings or other special occasions, just give us a call! These pieces can be made in other colors and sizes for adults or children. We also make bolos and belt buckles for the guys.

This image illustrates the different look of dichroic glass when worn with dark and light colors.
















Just a few samples of various jewelry styles in dichroic glass.
















Pendants don't need to be beaded - they also look elegant just on a neck ring, chain or cord. These images show how to wear pendants with a neck ring.
















These pieces looked great with bride's maid dresses, but would also be suitable for any guest at the wedding, or for the mothers of the bride and groom.
















Some jewels for the Flower Girl! These can be made larger for the bride's maids - and bride's maids sets can be made smaller for Flower Girls.
















Beautiful with a gown, or with a suit!

Earrings shown here are clip-on style. We can convert any earring to clip-on or for pierced ears.
















A set for the bride in white... or with any gown!











































































A set for the bride in beige...

Another good example of the different look of dichroic glass when on white and black.

Keep this thought in your mind when you look at more of the images. When the light hits the dichroic glass, you may see a rainbow of colors.

VALENTINE'S DAY GIFTS FOR EVERYONE!

We have some GREAT gift ideas for your VALENTINE at Martin's Glass House! Hurry in - Valentine's Day is this Saturday!

(Click on the photo to enlarge it.)

If you haven't seen the new SOAP ROCKS, SOAP WOODS, PALM STONES AND HEART GEMS at Martin's Glass House, come check them out before they're gone! We also have PURE & SIMPLE BATH BARS in Aloe, Lavender, Shea Butter and Tea Tree Oil. They make terrific gifts alone - or find a variety of soap dishes in our studio to complete the package.

These soaps are made by T.S. Pink in Oneonta, NY... All natural ingredients, and tested only on humans. They are beautiful - and look so realistic! The scents are divine... and the more you use them, the more the veins in the rock shapes, and rings in the wood pieces, are exposed. They're fun, intriguing, and something everyone will appreciate.

If you want more than soap, we have a variety of night lights, dichroic glass jewelry in heart shapes - and not heart shapes, as well as bookmarks, Everything Clips (you need to see these!), Remembrance Tins (for little keepsakes, or the jewelry you purchase), mirrors... oh, the list goes on and on! Of course, there are plenty of other glassware items and accessories that you can purchase from our studio shelves - and you really need to see the displays to see how much there is from which to choose.

Can't decide? We have GIFT CERTIFICATES for your Valentines who want to make their own beautiful glassware in one of our workshops or at open studio times.

No matter how you look at it, you and your Valentine will be very pleased with your Valentine selection! We hope to see you soon at Martin's Glass House!
