What’s a glassbaby? Well, to put it simply, a glassybaby is Lee Rhodes-blown small, colored, glass cup, candleholder, or vase.

glassybaby come in 53 different colours and are made through a multi-layered glass-blowing process and their color comes from different shaded color rods to produce a mix of opaque, translucent, and deeply colored glasses. This method creates a thick, strong piece of glass that has many functions and uses.

And why are we mentioning them on Greenthinkers? They are lead-free, come in environmentally-friendly packaging, and also, proceeds from a selection of colors go to funding cancer research and patient care. Sounds good to us.
