🎃WGK GLASS:🎃

The shop was started by owner Thomas von Koch in Germany in 1982. Thomas who was 25 at that time knew very little about running a business. He started everything from scratch as a passionate lamp worker who wanted to create pieces that reflected how he felt. He started with vases and tea light candle holders and bongs as most lamp workers and glass blowers did at that time. As time progressed, so did he. Thomas spent the majority of his childhood summers in a small cottage in Austria. This is where he was taught by his father to love, respect, and appreciate nature. Thomas began to reflect back on these times and decided to use nature to revamp his creative style. He soon met like minded individuals John Zinner, Sandra Jahn and Anja Stötzer. These three started their research and began creating for the world.

When the economy began to fail, he and his team became economical refugees, if you will, in the U.S. Being that WGK Glass Art already had a U.S. customer base, it wasn't long before the customers started to build up. This is when Kimya Williams was asked to join the team to help organize, market, promote, and make sure the highest level of customer satisfaction was being met.

Together these individuals make WGK Glass Art.

TGIF!
Let’s start the long weekend off right with three more artist spotlights! Today, it’s Nora Steele Art, All That And A Bar Of Soap, and Stahl Bowls. Keep reading to learn more about these wonderful artists that will be at the Glass Pumpkin Festival September 18-20 🎃➡️

🎃NORA STEELE ART:🎃

As a child, I spent much of my time outdoors searching for the fairy folk. While I never found fairies, I discovered something more meaningful…
The quiet magic of the natural world itself. That sense of wonder continues to shape my artwork and educational work today.
For a full decade, I worked as a full-time Naturalist and educator. I loved my work deeply, but in early 2024 I made the difficult decision to step away from my “nine to five” Naturalist position and further pursue my passion for education through Art.
When I left, I carried a lot of guilt for walking away from something I loved, for not being able to “fix” things and for putting my mental health first. But what I have learned since is that people don’t leave good jobs, they leave unhealthy dynamics. And sometimes the bravest thing you can do is to walk away from what’s breaking you, even if it once meant everything to you.
Today, my artwork celebrates the diverse and often overlooked flora and fauna of the region. And looking back, setting out on my own course was the best decision I could have ever made.
Through illustration and education, I hope to inspire curiosity, appreciation, and stewardship of the natural world.
And… if you’re also in that place, questioning yourself and trying to hold it all together, please know that you’re not weak, you’re human. And you’re not alone.

🎃ALL THAT AND A BAR OF SOAP:🎃
Soap was born from some oils and a dream - let me provide all your skin's needs! Growing and learning one bar at a time 🛁
My products are 100% handmade, by me, using quality (and often local) ingredients following my own personal formulations that I tinkered with and tested over and over again until I found what performed to high standards that I also loved. I do my absolute best to offer all-natural but also offer popular scents from fragrance oils when they are not available in essential oils. These fragrances are thoroughly tested to be skin safe and always used at safe percentages!

What started as making soap simply for my family because of a stubborn rash quickly grew into selling to family. Soap turned into lotion turned into bath bombs and suddenly I had an entire line of products! Soon enough I found myself at a farmer’s market, then at vendor shows, and quickly the requests for an online store rolled in, so here I am. I am new to Etsy (technically I opened it years ago but not until early 2025 I'm actually giving a real try), I am still always learning more and more, and I do this not just to make some extra money but to provide quality products at the most affordable prices I can offer. I love this little business and strive to make sure everyone who buys from me loves their product(s). This is my dream, but I can’t keep growing it without YOU!

I have a list of other products that have been requested that I am working on creating or testing formulas for, so check back often! I am also always changing scents and offering new for a variety of products, so keep an eye for those changes as well. You are always welcome to message me with any questions, concerns, or requests you may have. Custom orders are accepted on a case-by-case basis.

This is a woman owned small business!
