Nancy Safko has spent decades working with glass.  What started as a hobby has turned into a passion as she discovered the beauty of hand-worked glass jewelry and gifts.  In January 2005, Nancy started her own business, Kaleidoglass, to sell the pieces she was making.  Now she has transformed her hobby into a successful small business, selling her handmade glass art at retail stores, arts and crafts shows, and through her website.

 

The Rising Tide Community Loan Fund provided a $10,000 loan to Kaleidoglass for working capital and the purchase of equipment and inventory as Nancy expands sales and demonstrations at Arts and Crafts shows throughout the region.
