Wholesalecrafts.com and AcreLasVegas.com

I was recently juried into Wholesalecrafts.com :)  I have decided to move into wholesaling with some of my production work and will be showing at the American Craft Retailers Expo (ACRE)  in Las Vegas in late April.  I am excited about casting the "broader net" and look forward to working with retail gift shops and galleries through wholesalecrafts.com.  Of course my principle focus will continue to be frit painting, but this allows me to sell and market my smaller work without all the drama associated with the local area galleries.

If you would like to "visit" my page click here and enter artist #27243 and pw - aspenlight.  Please keep in mind that I am just getting started with my product and hope to have it more robust in a couple of months.  If you are interested in placing an order, the site requires that you register as a retail buyer.

The Framing of Frit Paintings on Glass

Aaaah, the sweet smell of success!  I have finally conquered the impossible--I have successfully mounted the frit painting on glass and then set the base glass in a heavily fortified frame.  Thank you Hang Your Glass for creating the nesting mount.  It works fabulously for what I have wanted to do for a long time.
