Madison
Design Studios announces a new line of glass ornaments,
Peaces of the World™. In the same tradition
of Flakes and Flurries™, these ornaments consist
of beautiful snowflake-inspired designs created by
the repetition of a single, hand-lettered word. In
this case, the word "peace" is
in each of eight different languages; creating eight
beautiful and unique designs. Peaces of the World™ are
available for purchase at our online store.
