SEATTLE SENSATION glassybaby MOVES TO A NEW HOME

New facility will allow production volume to double

SEATTLE, WA - glassybaby has moved from Greenlake to its new location in the Madrona neighborhood at 3406 East Union Street, Seattle. Expanded business hours will be Monday – Saturday 10am – 6pm.

The new home will allow glassybaby to double its production with glassblowers now producing in two shifts. “Our first home in Greenlake was my testing ground to see if glassybaby could truly become a viable business”, reflects Lee Rhodes, glassybaby founder, “the business is growing faster than I could have ever dreamed and our new space will allow us to keep up with our demand.” In addition, the new space will be available for rent for evening events.

With the opening of the new space, comes the introduction of a new goodwill glassybaby – Dream – an ethereal stark white that fades to clear, evoking a dreamlike state. 10% of the proceeds from every sale of a Dream glassybaby will be donated the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. Goodwill is one of the ways that the company is giving back. Every year, glassybaby goodwill designates a select group of colors to benefit local and national organizations contributing to cancer patient care and cancer research.
