Please Avoid the Free Download Links for the Book!
While it is great the book has done well and continues to do so, the number of scammers offering free E-downloads of the book continues to amaze me. So please avoid these links.

Another Mention of the Book!
The blog Eco-Chic design mentioned the book the other day. Eco-design blogger Elke Erschfeld said " Currently I’m reading the book “sculpture and design with recycled glass” by Cindy Ann Coldiron. It features artists that turn recycled glass into beautiful sculptures, has step-by-step instructions on how to create some glass projects that I would like to tackle next year, and highlights green glass companies such as California-based Fire & Light. "
Thanks for the mention Elke!

Two New Reviews of the Book
A website on salvaging glass for reuse in DIY projects has a review of the book on the lower right side of the web page.
Click here to visit the website.
Also, the website lovereading.co.uk lists the book on their site. This is doubly important since "Lovereading was founded for book lovers by book lovers in 2005. These days, it is harder than ever to find the book you want to read next - particularly because of the sheer volume and choice of books you can find on the net. So at Lovereading, we only feature books we have read and believe are great reads in their category."
"The Title speaks for itself, and all the reviews are good, so this would make an excellent present for someone or for yourself if you fancy having a go."
