Hi, I’m Eddie. Im a fused glass artist based in Ireland in a small village in Westmeath, "the middle of Ireland"

I’ve been working with glass for 10+ years now and have been creating handmade glass art inspired by Ireland, the sea, flowers and rainbows, along with many other things.

As my skills and designs have grown, I would love to take my work to the next level by making more artist pieces, vases, better jewellery and maybe even turn wine bottles into glasses. "lord knows my partner has accumulated a lot of bottles." That's where your help comes in!

I’m hoping to raise €2,500 to purchase a lap grinder and polishing equipment.

This will allow me to:

Give my glass pieces a more professional look with a better, polished finish

givemy wrists a break from hand grinding :P

Create smoother, more refined designs

Experiment with new techniques and larger pieces

Offer better quality pieces to my wonderful customers and students

Why €2,500?

The funds will cover:

The Lap Grinder Machine

A full set of polishing pads

Setup and essential maintenance to keep it running

Be Part of My Journey

I’ll share regular updates, behind-the-scenes photos, and progress as we work toward the goal. If we reach it, you’ll be among the first to see what I can create with this new tool! And give my arm a rest with my small baby grinder. lol

Thank you for supporting me, my art, and my handmade craft. Your help means the world to me. I really appreciate any help given.
