Featured Sponsor: Northwest Garden Bling

Concrete, WA

Northwest Garden Bling, our newest sponsor, is a unique glass studio featuring stained glass and mosaic. Nestled in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains they have been serving glass artists in the NW corner of Washington State for over eighteen years. They offer a full line of glass, tools, supplies and classes in a fun, happy atmosphere.

You are invited to their holiday open house December 7th from 10 am to about 2 pm: “This is our annual customer appreciation day and open house. This year we are inviting other local vendors to join in the fun! We’ll have some light refreshments and general good cheer, some special sales and possibly a door prize or two. Please plan to join us for this annual event.”

They also host an annual “Mosaic Challenge” each year beginning in February & culminating the week of Mother’s Day with a juried showing of the mosaics. Lots of great mosaics and fun for all, entrants and viewers. Follow their Facebook page to get the notice about next year’s challenge specifics.

“We have so much fun here. It’s hard to describe. Not only do we do glass classes and workshops but beading and fabric classes too. Local guest instructors add to the fun environment. So many wonderful pieces have left this shop and so many people have been inspired to continue in their art by coming here. I’m proud to be part of my community and the glass community.”
