Glonney Designs

HI HI HELLO!!! Hope you are all well and surviving another lockdown...at least we've had a bit better weather this time! Long post alert!! I disappeared AGAIN but this time I do infact have good reason rather than my poor management of social media. For the last 9ish months instead of creating glass I have been creating a new human! Unfortunately I am the worst person at being pregnant I would go so far to say that when pregnant I am a walking advert for contraception 😂😂. All combined with a high maintenance 3 year old meant that I had to stop working a good while ago. She was born 1st March and then we were plunged (AGAIN) into a lockdown and I have just about caught my breath 6 weeks later!! So I thought I would pop a little post up saying hello and that I am on maternity leave BUT I still have lovely stock in the Manx Museum (fingers crossed the lockdown will lift soon) and @manxnationalheritage also have some pieces of my work on their online store (https://manxnationalheritage.im/shop/product-category/island-inspired-artisans-artists-makers/glonney-designs/) I am here and I will be back but for now I am going to take time with my babies before they are to old to want to be bothered with me anymore 😂😂 Enjoy the sunshine!

These little gems are FINALLY at the Manx Museum! After having to wait for bits and pieces that kept getting waylaid in the post finally they are finished. Just a small warning that there are only a very limited number of these beauties and once they are gone they are gone this year as for reasons that will become obvious soon I'm not going to have time to make more! So if I were you I would get in early to avoid disappointment 🙂 . . . #manxmuseum #manxnationalheritage #harrykellyscottage #newstockalert #whentheyaregonetheyaregone #christmasornament #christmas2020 #fusedglass #fusedglassartist #warmglassuk #warmglass #isleofman #cregneash #glonneydesigns (at Manx Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CF4-s3XpKui/?igshid=jk4o48hrr2mo
