Hi guys! I know some of you have been wondering where I have been for the last month. I have officially started a business and have been so busy setting it up and trying to get things made and ready to sell. On top of that, I had yet another website to develop and get up and running. Today, Focal Point Glassworks Retail Gallery is officially open for business. I will be adding products as they become available. So much to do, so little time. I'm hoping soon to be able to spend more time here with my friends, but until then, I will continue to pop in and try and keep up. http://www.focalpointglassworks.com

You're getting there, pal! Is it just me or is there a black banner across Focal Point Glassworks?

I hope you don't mind, Kev. I put as note over on the Glass Factory board "Many of our members know Kev, who runs the "Artisans of Glass" board. Go have a look at his new venture:http://www.focalpointglassworks.com/ He's officially gone "Pro".

Wow, Kev, you done good. Very nice website and lovely items, I love the Dichroic puffed heart necklaces, especially the purple one, that's my favorite color. Congrats, Kev!

What I did get to see if very nice though. I wish you all the best with your new adventure.

Gee thanks Graham..that's so nice of you...I appreciate all the traffic I can get. Hopefully it will be picked up by the web crawlers, though I still have to add all the meta tags yet...grrrrr. I have no idea what that bar is..I've never seen it. Hard to fix what I can't see...lol. Joan...if you do a search for FPGW's, you will get the blog listing because the retail site is too new to be listed on the search engines. Just type this in your browser bar at the very top of your page and it will take you to the retail site. http://www.focalpointglassworks.comThanks guys for all the support! So greatly appreciated! You guys are the best! Kev

Hmmm, very strange. When I go to the site I have a black bar with your categories printed on it going right through Focal Point Glassworks. No matter...it's not a big thing!

Great looking site - I do have one MINOR nit pick - if you have access to the HTML code, make all email and site addresses live, not static where people have to copy and paste to actually connect with the address. PM me if you want the HTML code - will be glad to assist - the email one is very easy and you can even set it up to let you know where exactly people clicked on it (automatically plugs in the subject line).
