The Glorious World of Glass

Welcome to my blog! My name is Timmy and I would like to invite you to enter on a journey into the world of glass. Many people take glass for granted. In fact, because it is transparent, many people do not even see glass until something goes wrong and it shatters or cracks. I would like to change this by educating people about how glass can improve their home. I am not a professional glass worker, but I am very friendly with a number of glazers and they have taught me everything they know. I hope you like my blog.
