Kristi Thorndike-Kent

Kristi Thorndike-Kent fell in love with glass while working in real estate and seeing stained-glass windows in Craftsman-style homes. She became obsessed with glass and started working with it in 2006. "It's a lot of trial and error at first until you learn what works, and more importantly, what doesn't."

Today, Kristi has five kilns going around the clock. She enjoys creating whimsical and cheerful fused glass items that make people smile.
