The Wonder of Glass

About Me

Hello, my name is Danny and this is my glass blog. Ever since I was a small child, I have always been fascinated by glass. My granny used to have these amazing stained glass windows. I would sit there for hours as the sunlight streamed in onto me turning the room into a rainbow. She also had a lot of glass objects scattered around the house. It was magical. I told myself that when I grew up, I would have a house like that. Last year when I bought my first place, I called in a glass contractor who carried out a range of work so I could begin to install and repair the glass windows and other surfaces. I am learning all the time. I hope you like my blog.
