THE ITALIANS HAVE ARRIVED



Highly anticipated inventory from the island of Murano (Italy), often said to be the capital of glass, has arrived. The products come from Yalos Murano, a leading trademark in the traditional production of glass. Style and design of their products make them great for decor of contemporary as well as traditional homes. What is amazing are the colours as well as specific texture of glass their bowls and vases are made of. All who are interested in glass products are aware of an exceptional quality of silica items originating from Murano. Lovers of decorative, as well as functional glass vases, bowls, plates, figurines, centerpieces, etc. should definitely consider complementing their collections with the Murano glass. Indeed, they are not the least expensive, but the connoisseurs of glass know that they are worth their price. Here is a peak of what we will be offering in the Glamorous Glass web store, and later, in our boutique. Enjoy!

GLAMOROUS GLASS GOT A GREAT PROMOTIONAL OPPORTUNITY

Glamorous Glass has received an excellent opportunity to promote itself in a local community. The Small Business Centre at the Regional Municipality of Halton (Ontario) provided us with a chance to present the products we will be offering. Therefore, for months of May and June all visitors to and employees of the Municipality of Halton will see glass vases, centerpieces, bowls, etc. offered by Glamorous Glass. They will be exhibited in the glass display at the Centre. We could not have imagined a better way to start market ourselves in our community.

So we want to thank all of the employees of the Small Business Centre, especially Yolanda, who expressed their interest in having our products displayed in their offices.

MORE GLASS FROM GALICJAN AND JOZEFINA

Here are a few more examples of the Galicjan and Jozefina glass vases from Poland. You should know that their colours are not achieved through painting, but through heating together glass of various colours. These are great ideas for gifts, especially for the upcoming Mother`s Day! So if you notice here or on our Facebook page items that you especially like, just contact us through any of these sites, and we will provide you with details on products you are interested in.

COUNTING DAYS UNTIL THE GLAMOROUS GLASS WEB STORE IS OPEN

Things are speeding up, so although we still have some work to do, there is a chance we will welcome you in the web store at the end of April or beginning of May. Right now we consider different marketing options so we can reach our target audience. There is so many possibilities but we definitely need to choose the ones which will be the most effective and efficient. It's a tough one! And of course, we are still working on having the website up and running as soon as possible.

There are some details we need to arrange. For example, picking a courier which will deliver your glass in the cheapest way, but with a full quality of services, is not that easy. Or deciding on the packaging for the products as we will offer FREE gift wrapping!

Opening your own business, especially when you also have to juggle other responsibilities, is not the easiest thing to do, but definitely rewarding when you see your dream becoming a reality.

ARTISTIC AND GLAMOROUS


After some difficulties, we finally managed to get a number of pieces from other Polish glass works which specialize in artistic decorative glass products (Galicjan, Jozefina, etc.). We have contemporary shapes (swirled tubes, handkerchief glass vases), as well as more traditional ones. We are positive that you will find shell centerpieces and bowls to be perfect gifts for every occasion. These glass pieces are some of the finest available at these price levels.

Meanwhile, we are patiently waiting for our Italian supplier to ship their products straight from Murano. We are also in advanced talks with other European artists, but where from, it is a surprise.
