DID YOU KNOW...
Every glass garden flower is carefully created using recycled glass, some vintage and some newer, found at resale shops, thrift stores, estates sales, and garage sales. It's amazing what you can find and use to create magnificent recycled glass flower garden art! Each flower has its own unique beauty.

THE PROCESS
Many of my glass garden flowers are hand-painted. Others might simply left as is, layered and allowing the natural beauty of the glass work wonders in mother nature's sunlight. Flowers that are hand-painted are more time consuming to create. A craft paint made specifically for glass is used in the process. Each painted piece is fired in a 300 degree oven, baked for 60 minutes, which allows for paint curing and durability.

All pieces are bonded together using a clear marine grade industrial adhesive which is a UV protected, weatherproof, and safe for temps 40 below to 150 above (tested excellent in the harsh Chicago winter of 2013, the second worst on record for this area). The bonding tensile strength is superior.

Glass Garden Flowers may have very minor imperfections (small chip etc) since they are created from recycled glass materials having its own secretive story. This will not interfere with the beauty and new life it will bring to your beautiful garden. By the way, all glass garden flowers are drought and deer resistant.

DISPLAYING YOUR GARDEN FLOWER
Your flower will arrive with a hockey puck bonded to its backside. Simply insert a 1/2 inch piece of conduit or copper pipe into the pre-drilled hole in the hockey puck. The conduit or copper pipe can be purchased at your local home improvement store quite inexpensively. Directions about installation and care will be included with your flower.

CARING FOR YOUR GLASS GARDEN FLOWER
Hand washing your flower is recommended. Although it is best to clean and store your flower over the winter if you get sleet and snow, I tested a flower by leaving it out during the winter and it did fine.
