Michelle began creating glass in 2020 as therapy and a hobby. Her husband started creating stands to display the art. Friends and family and other glass artists wanted to start purchasing her creations and she started a small Etsy shop. She quickly grew as a vendor for Uncommon Goods, and her pieces has been shown in catalogs and showcased on the front cover. Her pieces are now spread across the world!
