Ali's Glass Designs Welcome to my first Ebay Store Opened in April 2011 I have been selling at Art Shows for several years and time for me to expand my horizons to internet sales. Alison Hoagland has had a lifelong interest in the arts. As an undergraduate she studied studio art at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville. Currently, Alison pursues her passion for glass blowing and in 2003 built her own studio in Bellingham, Washington."What intrigues me most about working in hot glass is the process of transformation. From the moment I dip into the furnace full of hot molten glass there is a small window of opportunity to blow, shape and coax the glass into a conceptualized form. Whether I am making a simple ball shape or a more complex vessel form, I am ever challenged by the immediate need for intense focus and attention. It is this challenge that continually captivates my imagination for self-expression in color and form. For me, blowing glass is the ultimate metaphor for transformation and it is this process which brings me immense satisfaction." Ali in her studio blowing glass at Ali's Glass Designs The picture on far right top row is an example of a grouping of 3 LeavesThis is a listing for 1 hyacinth purple Glass Sculpted Leaf Garden Ornament.This ornamental hand sculpted glass leaf makes a great addition to any garden setting. The pretty purple color will give your garden an extra pop of color and compliment existing foliage and flowers in your garden decor. The glass leaf also has a special ribbed detail which adds texture to its unique quality.This leaf has an overall height measurement of 1 3 1/2 " including the copper tubing and is 3 3/4 " wide. The glass leaf fits like a sleeve over 1/2 inch diameter re-bar that is not included. You can purchase 1/2" re-bar at any major hardware store like Lowes or Home Depot in different lengths. Just make sure the rebar is not 5/8" in diameter.When installing the rebar, I like to put the rebar about 1/2 foot to 1 foot into the ground for stability. However, when pounding the rebar in the ground, it is preferable to use a piece of buffer material between the metal hammer and metal rebar to prevent the end of the rebar to expand or get larger in diameter. I like to use a scrap piece of wood or 2x4. If you hammer directly on the metal rebar with a metal hammer, too much pounding, could cause the end of the rebar to get wider and the copper end of the glass finial may not fit on the rebar. So, just be careful with that detail.These leaves look great in groupings of 3 as shown in the very top and last photos. It can also make a wonderful gift for the garden lover in your life .Shipping is $1 6 . 95 by fed-ex ground with insurance.
