{"title":"Sand Catcher \/ Memory \u0026 Heirloom","description":"\u003cp\u003eA life's happiest memories held in sand that has been frozen as a liquid solid. That's what glass is - it is also made of sand. As a conceptual artist who lives in southern California but who came from the very the very cold north I have an appreciation for each and every beach. I call it home but worhship it like a tourist. I've created these beautiful vessels to hold the grains that come from a life of cherished vacations. In the fused glass tradition it is common to be asked to include a loved ones remains in glass. Ive done it once for a friend during covid when everything was shutdown. I produce the vacation heirloom through this website, and these are also available through better funeral homes and can be made to specifications and engraved and usually delivered for services.  \u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"sand-catcher-laguna-beach","title":"Sand Catcher - Laguna Beach","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring home the sand from your vacations and store it on this beautul One of a kind fused glass display with a hollow section.
