After retiring from a fulfilling career as a medical social worker, Valerie embarked on a new creative journey that has captured her heart and imagination. 

 

In 2021, Valerie discovered her passion for stained glass when she enrolled in a six-week intensive course. She knew she had found her artistic niche when she held a glass cutter and witnessed the transformation of glass pieces into colorful designs. Valerie’s preferred technique is the copper foiled method, a technique perfected by Louis Comfort Tiffany.

 

Among her collection of breathtaking stained-glass pieces, Valerie takes immense pride in her exquisite spiked flower holders. Through her meticulous craftsmanship and artistic vision, she brings these vessels to life, infusing them with vibrant colors that dance with light. 

 

Her spiked flower vases are always available. Colors and style vary and are subject to change. Items below depict examples of past pieces.
