I spy D I Y
Something to try! Party glasses? Found a glass marble DIY via. Bottoms up!
- Mask off the bottom of the glass with painters tape.
- Fill a disposable, plastic container with water. Open all the nail polish bottles and start dripping polish into the water, one color at a time.
- Layer the colors one on top of the other. Take a toothpick and pull out the polish to create a swirly pattern, starting from the center.
- Submerge the bottom of the glass into the polish. Before marbling the next glass, take a clean toothpick and sweep up any excess polish from the water.
- Allow to dry completely before applying a layer of clear polish.

"In the Trees." Today, Biskup released a print edition of "Walk With
Bob," available both framed and unframed. You can buy it now in his webstore.]

"Best (Definitely Tobacco) Pipes by Philly Glass Artists: Smoke in style."
[A Philly boy born and raised (though he left for Austin to collaborate with Salt), Snic has come to be known for his intricately blown and electroformed accessories. Slinging glass since 1997, Snic’s ability to meld glass with metal surpasses most other blowers attempting the process, as illustrated in Max Tubman’s new "Singularity" video, which showcases Snic’s artistic process and final products for late 2011. He is also one of the artists behind boutique (read: expensive) glass brand FYC, a collaborative effort along with JP Toro of the famed Toro Glass and fellow Philly artist Marble Slinger.]
