I just love decorating my tree, it's one of my favourite days of the year 🎄 I love getting out all my individually handmade decorations that I've collected over the years and making our home look all special and Christmasy 🥰

We had a real tree last year that dropped its needles all over the floor 🤦‍♀️ this year we might go for an artificial one to save on the mess! What's your tree like? Big, small, real or artificial? Whatever type of tree you have, I have handmade fused glass decorations to fit. My favourites are still my little glass robins. They come in small, medium or large. I even do sets of 3 now too.

Good morning all, happy Sunday 😊

(I know its a bit early but...) I just love Christmas and especially Christmas decorations! I try and buy 1 new unique decoration every year. I've gathered quite a collection! This in turn inspired me to design and make my own.

My designs are perfect to get you in the holiday spirit. Ideal to give as a small Christmas gift to friends and family or to treat yourself to help decorate your own home.

Made from fused glass and delicate silver foil, this Christmas decoration is made by carefully trapping a delicate silver foil snowflake inside 2 sheets of glass, red and clear and fusing them together to make a seal. The glass is hand cut and fused by myself in my studio. The glass is annealed slowly to ensure its strength and durability.

It measures approximately 3cm x 5cm and is finished off with a beautiful silver ribbon, ready to hang on your tree or mantle piece.

Each of my decorations comes in its own individual gift box making it a perfect gift 🎁

It's getting to that time of year again when we all start to spot lots more robins out in the garden 😊

I love robins and this was one of the first Christmas decorations I made many years ago. They've been a firm favourite of mine ever since. So much so that I decided to name my business after them Little glass robin 😊

I have them available in small, medium and large and are perfect for helping to decorate your home over the festive period.

They arrive beautifully wrapped in red tissue paper, in their own gift box, keeping them safe for years to come 🎁

Have a great weekend everyone,

My Story

Here at little glass robin as you can probably guess I love all things festive as well as glass! I have a fused glass studio in Eastleigh, Hampshire in the UK although I’m still a Yorkshire lass at heart. I create fused glass work by hand and I just love what I do. I make Christmas decorations, handmade glass art, festive pictures, glass coasters, gifts & much, much more.

My love for glass began at University in way back in 2003 although I’d not worked with it before. After initially wanting to become a chef(!) and working in a busy kitchen I realised that that life was not for me. I wanted to do something more creative. It was at that point that I headed to art collage before continuing to University.

It was only after my studies where I'd originally specialised in glass blowing that I gravitated towards fused glass. A short glass fusing course and a lot of practice later, I was all set up with my own kiln ready to make my own glass work.

I find that the festive period fuels me with inspiration each year. I love to see the beautiful Christmas decorations and displays. I will without fail buy a new handmade decoration each year to add to my personal collection (sometimes a lot more than one but don’t tell the other half!).
