This little locally owned glass shop on the east side of Elwood offers glass making demonstrations…read moreand has a gift shop filled with hundreds of pieces of in-house made products. We visited during the Elwood Glass Festival. The shop is in an older pole barn with parking on the side. The demonstrations were outstanding and fascinating. Master craftsman, Danny, made several paperweights while assistant, Wendy, narrated the process. It was mesmerizing to watch and the team welcomed questions. They described each step, while Danny worked. Watching Danny make glass was the highlight of our visit to Elwood. The gift shop next door was filled with all types of colorful and intricate glass items. There were paperweights, vases, ornaments and glass decor. The glass is marked and sold under the name Prestige. Prices were reasonable for a handcrafted work of art. I'm not sure the demonstrations are available everyday or not, so call before you go if you want to observe. They will make custom pieces. They also offer classes in glass making.

ok-i have to come out and say right off the bat that i am not an artist, nor do i work with…read moreglass--although i did work at a company that did a lot of glass walls--think 1/2 inch glass--but this is a lot different. my girlfriend is the artist and works with glass and she and i had a discussion about coming here. i am totally enamored with the tour, the production and the information presented. what really blew my mind away is the trememdous customer service attitude that i witnesses today. she needs something specific, and the great care that was shown her in finding particular colors of glass really impressed me. too often it seems that in a lot of places the care of the customer is overlooked. not here--by a long shot. and you gotta take the tour even if you are not looking to buy or work with glass. it is fantastic to watch and i suppose in the oven room on a very cold winter day would be a great place to be but even so today was delightful even with the heat outside. thanks again for the time and care that everyone showed us today in trying to find something special. and yes, the drive was worth it.

Kokomo Opalescent Glass is America's oldest glass manufacturing company. They began manufacturing…read morecolorful sheet glass in 1888 and, today, produce 75% of the world's stained glass. I took a tour of their factory today. Tours are available weekdays by calling their office. The 45 minute tour costs $6 for adults and $3 for students. The tour starts and ends in their small gift shop. We visited and saw demonstrations of molten glass moving from furnaces to make sheet glass. We learned about how they mix colors and recycle waste glass. We visited their warehouse and learned about the different qualities of glass and how the glass is shipped. Finally, we saw artisans making decor pieces from the glass. Our tour guide was friendly and interesting. I had trouble hearing her in the furnace room, but still was able to follow. Closed shoes must be worn (no sandals). They provide safety glasses. We found ample parking in their lot. Restrooms are available on site. The buildings are ancient and interesting. The furnace building holds a beehive furnace that was interesting, but is no longer operational. Worth a visit to this Indiana treasure.

So I paid on Dec 12th for my wife's Christmas present. It was your mistake sending the wrong item…read more You asked if I could send the item I received to the correct person but you never gave me an address or label. You said the other person would send my item. After a couple of days of no response I started a return hoping I would at least get an update. The response was go ahead and return it and you will send my item. No further communication but I see ebay is issuing a refund which I don't want. You received my return of the garnet you sent by mistake but I have no idea where my gold earrings are. I am pretty sure I won't have these for Christmas. You should be ashamed of your lack of response. You said you were really busy well good for you. I used the contact form on your website as well and left my email and cell number but no one has bothered. Really unbelievable. I returned your garnet the day I received it hoping you would send my item I guess I'll give my wife an empty box with a promise. Steve New message from: 765lesley I'm so sorry we sent you the wrong item. Would you be willing to mail it directly to the correct recipient?

New message from: 765lesley New message to: 765lesley OK I have it where is the label? Should I start a return or how do you do this? Do you have tracking for my earrings yet? I need those for Christmas. I can give this to the postman tomorrow but I need the label early. New message from: 765lesley Sorry I was extremely busy here in my store yesterday.

This is a very nice farm. They are known for their alpacas. They offer a few alpaca experiences…read moresuch as an alpaca walk or alpaca feedings. They also offer overnight lodging. They have a house, a cabin, a suspended tent and a camp site that you can stay over night in. Additionally, this place serves as an event venue that can be rented for events such as weddings. Making a reservation is simple. I did it on-line. I just picked a date and time and then they sent me an email confirming my requested date and time. Easy peasy!!!! We were guided by TIm. He was very friendly and awesome. We were the only ones on the tour that day and got the personal VIP treatment. during the tour, Tim pulled out a chicken and let me littles pet it and then showed them where the chicken had laid some eggs. I brought my two littles here and we did the alpaca feeding and walk. My kids, who are 3 and 7 loved feeding the alpacas. We then walked two of them around the grounds. My 7 year old controlled the animal like a champ. My 3 year old not so much. It ended up with me walking the animal about half way through. My kids also loved sliding down the slide that runs down a big hill on the farm. There is also a saucer swing there to swing on as well. Parking is available in front of the farm's store, which is between the rental house and the farm. They have some nice items in the gift shop. The stuffed animals are made of alpaca fur and are so soft. My kids each left with one of their own. This spot is about an hour an a half from Indianapolis. I am so glad that I made it here. My kids and I had a great time. We learned a lot about alpacas and enjoyed being outdoors, on the farm on a nice day. Tim and his wife Beth are amazing awesome and are running a first class operation. I highly recommend checking this place out.

Caution! You can expect this business to be extremely rude and not transparent about their prices…read more Make sure you get a confirmed price (including delivery, fees, taxes, etc,) When we found we had a double order within just a short period of time, the florist refused to cancel the order, belittled another business in town, claiming they were fraudulent in their practices. It was suggested we change the order, but No mention was made of increased costs yet the bill increased (we asked for something near $300 and ended up with close to $400). When someone dies, things are hard enough without this business making things harder. My family didn't appreciate the experience.
