Glass ring holders?
Does anyone know of anyone who makes these? They're like.....giant elongated hershey's kisses.
Here's an example of one I found on Amazon.
I'm sure given enough time I could probably make these myself but I really don't have the time or inclination right now and I'm in instant gratification mode 
Thanks.
-Yee

I don't know about that particular one, but I know Lana (GinkoGlass) was making some.

I make them as presents; but I've never sold any. If you can't find a source, pm me and I'll try to find time to make you some.

Hmmm, what a great idea, I'm tempted to try making one. Is the size Hershey Kiss-like or bigger?

Big enough that it won't go all the way through the ring.

I don't do that but maybe contact FIG (Michael Mangiafico) Some of his stuff looks like it could be similar.

I make a bunch of them. They are super easy. They sell pretty well at shows too.

I like to make them to use up my little shorts of canes and stringers. Just melt 'em up around a clear rod. Encase in clear if you want. Swirl around a bit. Let it blob up. Pull one end up to a point. Smoosh the other end. Fire polish any marks. Done!
