Now, more than ever before, home is where the heart is. Its also where the rest of our bodies are. As such, we’re reminded of the importance of keeping our environment both inviting and inspiring – a place that can spark our imagination and one that reflects our personality.

Elena Zaycman’s glass sculptures will add a playful twist to your home. Centered around the natural world, they feature butterflies, moths, and plants, made using the Tiffany technique. Based in Saint Petersburg, Zaycman sells her unique pieces through her Etsy shop.

“When I began working independently, I started with small suspended pieces,” she shared in an interview with the Etsy blog, “but I wanted to take the idea of hassle-free installation even further and create something where people wouldn’t need to worry about nails or drilling holes in walls.”

Her solution? Attach the stained-glass pieces to brass bars, achieving independent objects that can easily be brought into peoples’ homes, with no hassle of actually hanging them. Naturally, the quality of the materials is equally important when it comes to their design. “I measure the quality of the glass not only visually, checking for color and cleanliness—or the lack of any extra coating—but also by touching,” says Zaycman. “Glass should be pleasant and smooth.”

Scroll down to see some of her designs and share with us your favorite (personally, we’re dying to get our hands on the glass Elkhorn Fern.)

Devyn Ormsby’s fruit sculptures look good enough to eat. Paying homage to the blown glass fruit makers and collectors from the 1960’s, Ormsby makes the kind of decorative pieces you might remember from your early childhood, but with a trendy, sophisticated twist.

In an interview with MOLD, Ormsby explained that fake fruit was “usually made from various materials [like] plastic, Lucite, glass or wood” and was typically “light, simplistic and exaggerated in form.” Her collection, however, takes the traditional form but adds to it the weight of crystal glass, colored in pink, blue, yellow, and lime.

Amongst her glass fruit, you can find a banana, pear, mandarin, and lemon. The process begins “by making a silicone mold of the original object, from which [she] can make wax replicas. The next step is to fettle (trim and clean) the wax, filling holes and removing any seams… Once that is done, [she] begins building a contour mold around the wax. This is made up of many layers of a plastic/silica mix built around the shape of the fruit.”

Since graduating from Elam School of Fine Arts in 2015, Ormsby has worked in a Glass Studio based in Auckland, New Zealand. Her latest glass fruit series, named “Devon Made”, had already caught the world’s attention and rightfully so.

Halle Mardahl’s dazzling glass pieces will make you, inadvertently, think of candy. The Danish designer creates lidded jars, vases, and lamps using hand-blown glass, brightly colored.

“When I create my glass, I consider the magic of light, the way colors, shapes and patterns in the glass change under different lighting situations,” said the artist. “The candy collection came to life because I wanted to make the glass look tasty, like you could eat it. I’ve always loved sweet shops, the colors and the shapes, so I went full on trying to create a candy universe.”

Having graduated in fashion design from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London, Mardahl has exhibited her work around the world and has received several grants from the Danish Arts Council.

Her website states that as a designer, she likes exploring “the contrast between organic shapes and hard materials… Her designs bring life to spaces, and are equally capable of standing alone or blending in.”

Prepare to fall in love.

France-based glass artist Kim KototamaLune has a really unique style when it comes to making glass sculptures. She creates delicate pieces of art that seem like something only Mother Nature could create. KototamaLune then displays these glass sculptures in dark rooms which gives them an even more dramatic look. What makes her work even more impressive is that she doesn’t use molds.

KototamaLune, who was born in Vietnam and is fluent in several languages, says that cultural identity, the origins of life, and in-between spaces are the things that inspire her the most for these sculptures. Take a look at some of them below.

Dylan Martinez makes incredible art that looks like plastic bags filled with water, when in fact it’s all made from glass. How does he do it?

“The trapped movement of the rising bubbles and the gesture of the forms convince the eye that the sculptures are just as they seem,” says Martinez. “What is fascinating is that our desires often override our true perception of reality and you believe what you think is visible as the truth.”

Aren’t they amazing?
