Making of my Ocean Dreams necklace set.

The difference between casual food and Grandma's cooking is love. They may use the same ingredients, but Grandma puts love into her cooking. We can say the same with mass-produced products versus hand-made craftsmanship; the craftsperson/ artist puts love into their work. Bill and I pride ourselves on putting love into every piece of glass we make.
Aspen Hot Glass is a husband-and-wife collaborative business specializing in blown glass pixie orbs, collector marbles, cabinet knobs, Steampunk designs, handcrafted journals, and wire-woven Steampunk art pieces. Bill and Rae both have scientific backgrounds. In 1993, Bill left the avionics industry to be a glass blower in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana. In 2002, Rae left the corporate world to be with Bill and became a full-time artist. In 2016, Rae started incorporating metalworking, Steampunk, terrain builds, and other fantasy themes into the art designs. Together, they live on a small farm that includes orchards, an extensive garden with a greenhouse, a Steampunk shop, a Torch shop for torchwork glass blowing, Bill's Man Cave equipped with an electronics wing, and the Brewhouse, along with the Sage Cottage Observatory for astrophotography.
