About Me and Tree Glass Studios

Hello!
I'm Katie (she/they) and am the creator and owner of Tree Glass Studios. I learned the glass trade from my dad who has been a stained glass artist for 40 years. 

My creations are inspired by our earth and the cosmos. I enjoy creating pieces that remind us that we are a part of the earth; that our legacy and heritage are the flora, fauna, and animal families.

I officially opened Tree Glass Studios in 2019 and operate out of my home glass studio in Hanover, PA. The stained glass and fused glass pieces I create are hand cut, soldered or fused together in my kiln, and assembled from patterns of my original design (with a few exceptions).

Fragile and evergreen, tree glass.
The idea of "tree glass" came to me as I was driving one winter morning. I rounded a bend in the road full of spruce that were covered with ice from the overnight sleet. The sun shone on the branches, lighting the ice-covered needles into millions of crystals, creating a glass effect and the idea of Tree Glass Studios was born.

Watch how I create my art (and see my cats, chickens and spouse, Leigh!) on Instagram and Facebook.
