It's Stained! Not Stain...Arrgghh

Ok, I am better now. I would like to take this opportunity to correct about 1/3 of the worlds population on the correct pronunciation of the term "Stained Glass". (ok, maybe not 1/3 but it sounds good to me). 

So often I hear and see people talking about Stained Glass and using the term Stain Glass. Stain, according to Wikipedia:  A stain is a permanent discoloration that can be clearly distinguished from the surface, material, or medium it is found upon. 

If you have a stain on the glass then you have a problem! I don't know how the phrase "stained glass" came to be but I do know the glass is in no way stained. Confused? Wait until I explain what "Glass" is.... stay tuned! 

Ever feel like this? 

Etsy - Day 5

Well, it has been 5 days since I first posted my etsy store. No sales yet. I keep hearing to wait a month or two and then you will get sales. It is awfully hard to wait when so much time and effort has been put into the store. Oh well. George Bush didn't screw up America in a day so I doubt I will set the all time Etsy sales record this week.

Trying out different kinds of promotion techniques. This is one of them. I am now a twitter guy too. What the heck is twitter? I still haven't quite figured it out. Some sort of communicative device used by people whom are more technologically advanced than I. If you are one of those check me out at twitter. Search for Brad Boyes. No, not the hockey player. 

Etsy Store Now Open

Well, I finally did it. My Etsy store is now open. www.cherubglassworks.etsy.com
