And yes, it can be a bit quirky and silly, and that’s perfectly okay!
When we share our enthusiasm for glass collecting with others, it’s important to remember that not everyone will immediately see the charm. And that’s fine! The key is to share our passion with joy and a sense of humor. By embracing the fun and silly aspects of our hobby, we can spark curiosity and interest in others, even if they’re not initially drawn to the world of glass.
Think about it—collecting glass is like a treasure hunt. Each piece tells a story, from the way it was crafted to the journey it took to end up in your collection. There’s a sense of adventure in searching for that perfect piece, and a sense of accomplishment when you find it. It’s a hobby that brings people together, whether they’re seasoned collectors or newcomers just starting to explore.

Instead, by sharing our experiences with joy and enthusiasm, we create a welcoming atmosphere that invites others to join in the fun. Glass collecting isn’t about being serious or exclusive—it’s about celebrating the beauty of glass in all its forms and enjoying the process of discovering and appreciating these treasures.
