Part of what I like to do for you, the reader, is show you works of art and interesting glass pieces as well as exposing you to artists and studios that you might not have of heard of before.

Look at this gorgeous glass flower pendant made of borosilicate glass by Melissa Rediger that is on her Sea of Glass blog today.  Be sure to stop by the blog and her web site to see her other gorgeous glass work.  She works in both boro and soft glass and has turned some of them into absolutely gorgeous jewelry pieces as well.

She will be at the Bead & Button show and will have some of these pieces there.  Be sure to stop by and let her know you saw her on Craft Gossip!

Handmade with a Past: Tuesday’s Top Recycled Etsy Find

If you love a good wine and a stylish cheese platter, then this recycled flat wine bottle cheese board will be your new best friend. Not only does it combine two of life’s greatest pleasures, but it also gives a second life to old wine bottles, turning them into something functional and chic.

I stumbled across a similar piece at a friend’s gathering last year, and I couldn’t stop admiring it. The wine bottle was almost unrecognizable—transformed into a sleek, modern board for snacks and small bites. It’s the perfect conversation starter, and honestly, it brings a certain wow factor to any dinner party or casual gathering.

This cheese board isn’t just pretty; it’s practical too. The smooth surface is ideal for serving everything from crackers to fruit to your favorite cheeses. Plus, it’s an awesome example of recycling and upcycling, keeping those old bottles out of landfills while elevating your entertaining game.

Why we love it:

  • Made from recycled flat wine bottles, adding sustainability to your kitchen

  • A unique upcycled home decor item that’s also super functional

  • Ideal for wine lovers, eco-conscious hosts, or anyone who loves a good cheese board

Not only does this board make for a stylish and sustainable addition to your kitchen, but it also makes for an awesome gift for those who love eco-friendly entertaining.
