Default Glass posters

I would like to decorate my new studio with some posters of rod samples. Does anyone know where I can find any?

that would be so cool. Could probably make some through Cafe press or someplace that does custom designs? I haven't seen any.

Devardi was the last one I remember seeing but I have not really been looking for them since 2009 or so.

I think the Boro makers have color posters that may do what you want in a pinch but I have not seen any actual glass attached to a poster in quite a while.

Might be a bit spendy unless the manufactures have them stock piled.

If you search LE for "glass chart" you will find a fist full of links that will point you around the internet with web pages of color charts but none of them pointed to posters with the glass actually glued on like there were half a decade ago.

You need to use the quotation marks if you don't want the search engine to give you threads with each word as the only search term.

Some manufacturers have print posters that are available for free with purchases.

Glass Alchemy was one and I think Bulseye might be another.

But I didn't see any for soft (104) glass.

Lets us know what you find.

Mountain Glass Arts has printable color charts here: http://www.mountainglass.com/Color-Charts-Page-2.html

And Serena has a wonderful color gallery here: http://www.serenasbeadery.com/color-....html#Creation is Messy

Maybe you could have these printed at someplace like Kinko's?

Mountain glass arts has them from all the manufacturers and they include them with your order if you request it.

I made my own color charts by collecting shorts from different manufacturers. Some I made small beads with others I left as rod form. I prefer having the actual glass, so I can hold it under different lights, and sunlight.
