Glassblower Spotlight
Meet Karlie, a glass artisan at work in our Madrona hot shop. Ever since she first blew glass six years ago, in college, she has steadfastly dedicated herself to the craft. That dedication brought her to Seattle, where she quickly found a home at glassybaby.
Among glassybaby colors, Karlie's favorite to create is the dreamy 'creamsicle'. Outside of the hot shop, her favorite activities are reading and kayaking.
When asked about her craft, Karlie emphasizes the continuous evolution and dedication required to master the art of glassblowing. At glassybaby, our artisans are not merely workers, they are devotees, committed to perpetual refinement of their skills.
For a glimpse into more of Karlie’s creations, visit her Instagram @glass_royale.

Drawing inspiration from his Neah Bay Makah tribe heritage, he crafts stunning Native American-inspired pieces, including giant glass arrowheads.
When asked about his craft, Jeremy explains his desire to bring beauty into the world. He wants to experiment and experience all forms of glass art.
