Over the years, Diane has created 13 lighting fixtures and pendant lights for our ranch on the Central Coast of California. They are all beautiful! And when I told her I was painting the wine cellar Disney purple, she made a light fixture for the wine cellar! I also have three vases and one large bowl that she created. The best piece I think is the torchiere that she created after a conversation and I turned her loose and trusted her artistic abilities. Everyone loves my lights. The fixture over the dining table is also a beautiful statement piece. Diane is the light of our lives!

I have a bouquet of their daffodil flowers in a vase on the table of my home. I love them everyday. Aside from being pieces of art, they remind me of a beautiful vacation in San Diego with my family. Keep up the good work.

Cute little glass-blowing shop with many, beautiful pieces! You'd be hard-pressed not to find something special for that special someone here. The proprietor is very nice, personable and helpful. This was a very surprising and memorable discovery.
