It all depends on what I am working on at the moment, but I give all clients a window of 4-6 weeks. If you need your item by a specific date, please let me know and I can get it to you in time. I recommend all orders be placed AT LEAST 6 weeks prior to the date you need them. If you ordered a ready-made piece, you should receive it in 1-2 weeks!

I do ship internationally, however, it is expensive to do so. Since I’m based in the United States, please note that shipping one of my pieces internationally will incur additional costs. I am happy to do this, but want to be upfront with my international clients about the costs involved.

NO SUCTION CUPS PLEASE! Suction cups may seem like a good idea but are really a disaster waiting to happen. Hang your new piece using a screw ceiling hook or a nail for maximum strength and security! If your piece has patina (black solder lines) the best way to clean it is to polish it with car wax and a microfiber cloth. If your piece doesn’t have patina (silver solder lines) this will naturally patina over time, however you can clean it up with some fine steel wool and it’ll shine just like new!

• Pistol Cutter: Scores glass to guide it breaking in the right direction.
• Cutting Oil: Eases the use of the Pistol Cutter and can be especially helpful on the highly textured glass to ensure a smooth score.
• Grozer Pliers: Small, medium and large pliers are all used for breaking pieces of glass off of a sheet or excess off of a piece.
• Running Pliers: Used for large and straight cuts, helps guide the score down an entire sheet.
• Wire Cutters: Used to cut and bend copper wire for details, as well as to cut lead framing to size. I also use the wire cutters to hold hot things in place while I solder.
• Regular Pliers: Assists in opening and closing chain onto pieces to hang
• Horsehair Brush: Used to sweep away glass and lead that has gotten on the work surface. Scoring glass on an uneven surface can lead to unwanted breakage.
• Weller 100 Soldering Iron: Used to solder the piece together, melting a liquid lead/zinc alloy at 700 degrees Fahrenheit.

Glass colors are determined by images or descriptions provided by the clients and are chosen by the artist unless specific. Unless requested you will not receive an update on the glass choices.

Due to the large volume of orders, we cannot give individual updates to all clients. While we will try to post on Instagram and other social media channels with updates you will most likely not see the piece until completed unless requested specifically. Prior to shipping we will send a picture of the completed glasswork and close out any remaining payment including the shipping cost.

Absolutely! I love restoring sentimental or historical pieces to their former glory—whether it’s fixing a crack, recreating missing elements, or giving it a refreshed update. Simply fill out a custom order form, and I’ll be happy to work with you!

If a piece purchased from me becomes damaged, I completely understand that accidents happen. I’m happy to repair it for an additional fee. For new custom pieces needing repairs, please also complete the custom order form.
