Welcome to BellaBlog!


We hope you’ll visit often to learn about new products for fused glass and stained glass artists, classes to enhance your glass art skills, and tips to help you exercise your artistic muscles.


Bella Glass is a family owned and operated business, and we love to adopt new people into the family. For this blog, we’ve adopted Bella. She’s a very experienced glass artist, loves long walks on the beach and baking Snickerdoodle cookies. She’ll be sharing her best tips and tricks (about glass, not cookies) with you. Watch for her words of wisdom.


You’re welcome to comment on what you find here, but please be aware that we are only able to review comments from time to time and we cannot respond. If you have questions about our products, services or classes, please visit our website at www.bellaglassstudios.com or call us at 303-462-4221. If you’re having trouble with a glass art project, we invite you to sign up for one of our classes to learn more. Our Intermediate Fusing Class is perfect for those who want to work on their own projects while expanding their knowledge of fused glass artistry.

Special Money Saving Deals

Don’t let the economy stifle your creativity. We know everyone is watching their pennies (and dollars) these days, and we’d like to help. Each month we offer a discount on specific items. In May, you can purchase any of our retail stained or fusible glass at a 20% discount!


We’ve also started the Bella Bucks program. For every $20 you spend on GLASS, you’ll receive two Bella Bucks. The next time you shop with us you can use your Bella Bucks for up to 50% of your purchase. It’s an extra few dollars in your pocket to spend on your favorite artistic pastime.

Take a Class

Despite the economy, we’ve been as busy as bees expanding our product lines and finding new classes that will encourage you to stop in for a day or more to play with glass along with us. Recently, students at Bella Glass created some beautiful Stack and Smoosh plates that have a real retro look – can you say psychedelic? – and the Double Iridized Sandblasted plates our students created were dazzling. Check our website for the full schedule of upcoming classes.
