My time is limited, so I don't read a lot of blogs on a daily basis. But one that I do read is the Daily Muse . Today she showed some of the most incredible glass I've seen, and I wanted to share it with all of you. Take a look at these two pictures:

But I love glass, and because of that love, I am pleased to have shown you the works above.
Have a wonderfully artistic and productive day. Love people, play with color, smile - A LOT.
