Glass Spoon Rest
Step into the world of sustainable artistry with these one-of-a-kind dishes, masterfully crafted by the talented Kari Elrod. Each dish begins its journey as a beloved wine bottle that has added joy to gatherings and celebrations. These glass vessels are then lovingly repurposed, undergoing a transformation through the intense heat of a high-temperature kiln.
As the bottles are carefully heated, they begin to soften and collapse into themselves, forming a shallow, elegant bowl. The original labels, with their stories and origins, become a permanent, baked-in feature of the glass, adding character and preserving the bottle's legacy.
Kari Elrod enhances this metamorphosis by adorning the bottle's neck with meticulously hand-strung beads, lending a final touch of sophistication and charm. The result is not merely a dish but a conversation piece that carries the essence of its wine-soaked heritage.
These dishes serve as a testament to the artist's commitment to recycling and reimagining what would otherwise be discarded. They are a beautiful testament to the philosophy that beauty can be reborn from the remnants of joyous moments past.
Perfect as a centerpiece, a holder for treasures, or a conversation-starting serving platter, these dishes are as versatile as they are visually stunning. They embody the perfect marriage of form, function, and environmental consciousness, making them a thoughtful addition to any eco-friendly home or a unique gift for those who appreciate the art of upcycling.

"My boyfriend and I walked by this place last fall, stopped while they were doing a demonstration, and decided we had to come back for a class! We did the wine goblet class, where we each ended up making two stems for glasses (they attach the cup part and the base, so you don't have to worry about messing up the function 😅). It was so much fun! Our instructor (Daniel, I think, it's been a few weeks since we did it now) was great at teaching and guiding us through the process. We definitely want to go again in the (hopefully near) future!"– S. Leahsman
"Loved the experience for our family. Great way to spend a birthday. Our artist was fantastic, he answered all the questions and explained what was happening in a really down-to-earth way. It was fun and a great way to get a customized piece of art. We will be back."– jacat651
"We did the pendant class today, it was a great experience! Will definitely be back for more. Thanks, Joe and Pete!"– A. Urban
