The Glass Eye Studio Sidewalk Sale

For a few hours on one Saturday in May and another in October, Glass Eye Studio, a wholesale-only glass studio holds a sidewalk sale and throws it's doors open to the public.  There's always a lot of great glass to peruse and buy at 1/2 of wholesale prices, sometimes even lower.  To see a previous visit to this fab sale look here.  It had been a while since we'd attended the sale.  While some items are almost always present, each sale has unique prototype items and individual artists also set up their own spaces with  unique, non studio work.  What a great opportunity to obtain beautiful art glass for a fraction of the price!




I've forgotten what these are called but they have an opening in the bottom so they can have lights inserted and be used to illuminate garden paths.  In the background you can sort of make out some hummingbird feeders.









With so many eager shoppers milling about in search of treasure, I didn't take a lot of pictures.  If you're a fan of blown glass, this sale is definitely worth a trip.  To capitalize further on the sale, a few non Glass-Eye-affiliated artists sell their wares on the streets outside of the venue.  





Bird feeders.  I wonder if these are really frequented by birds.  the seed goes at the bottom but is glass too slick for birds to grasp?  They'd be pretty hanging from a tree anyway.
