It's Sale Time! Spring into Summer.

The CGGE is having a grand sale from June 1 to June 7. There will be lots of glass bargains to be had, including some of the beauties shown here on the right. Just go to www.etsy.com and search for CGGEsale. You can also go to www.cgge.org to view all the members and their glass work.

What does CGGE mean? It's the Creative Glass Guild of Etsy, a glass collective who are all etsyians.

Why does Etsy need a glass collective? To support each other and promote our glass work. CGGE is an inclusive group that is non-juried. Instead members are asked to "strive for five" - that is to have a minimum of five glass items in their shops.

What's in the sale? You will need to visit the individual shops to find out which bargains sellers are offering. Some will offer BOGOs, some % off, some will have reduced items, I, personally, will be offering free shipping, anywhere!

Which types of glass are available? Cold worked glass (etched, painted, stained glass) warm glass (fused and slumped) and hot glass (glass blowing, bead making).

Where else can I see CGGE glass? Check out the CGGE group on Flickr or visit the various blogs. Coming soon - a CGGE blog totally devoted to glass.
