Valentine Day Set - 70 Grit 12These unmarked bottles contain some of the best German Glass Glitter you will ever find. Three of our best selling colors in our Chunky (70 Grit) grains.

Meaty enough to stand up to any craft project you can glue it on, tender enough to sparkle like a diamond on an innocent girl's ring finger. And since it is for Valentine day crafts, you get hefty bottles of Red, Silver and Gold all in one set and a really great price. Six oz of Glitter for the price of three oz! Click here for details

If you have never used real German Glass Glitter, this is a great way to start!

Tattered & Timeless said it so well, and we are so happy she said it! We are kind of blushing over here...but we have to admit it is not the first time we have heard this. It's nice when you carry the best product on the market!

"German Glass Glitter is the only glitter you should ever use. 
I have used the store brand.  I have even popped for Martha Glitter but all of those pale in comparison to the real deal.  They don't even come in the same ball park. I took Marian's advice and ordered some from Meyers Imports and I will never go back."

Surprised_lady-1Deep in the black forest is a mountain that is made completely of Glass Glitter. Most people will not believe this, as we recently traveled there to take pictures of this amazing operation. We are sworn to secrecy and can not provide the exact location to protect the owners of this mine. And just as it was in the middle ages, the Glitter is still mined with the same tools and workers, the Glitter Elfs.

P1010863b1

   P1010865a
The mined glitter tumbles down the face of cliff to collBarney-fife-1ect in the conyever belt, putting each and every Elf worker at great risk of harm. But to these Elfs, nothing is too risky to get to the treasures of Glass Glitter contained in this amazing mountain. 

Once it is mined it's sorted by color, packaged and sent to us here in the States. It was great to travel to there land, to see their operation and to enjoy their freindship. And their beer was really good too!

Hope you enjoy the pictures! Happy Thanksgiving!
