Congratulations! We are looking forward to getting some fantastic glasswork.

Harry - thanks for your comments. Yes, we all have fond memories of playing when we were kids... and mine would react the same way. Excited to get them to you in a few weeks. We are excited that it's getting close to funding now - with your help, along with so many others!
Creator Harry Miktarian on July 12, 2012
What a great project! When I was in grade school we had "marble season" and played marbles at every recess and lunch period. I ask my 8 year old if they played marbles at school...and she looked at me like I was from outer space...she new what marbles were...but had no idea they could be used to play games. I believe she thought they were just the decorative round things in the bottom of Grandmas clear vases. Thanks for doing this, I really hope marbles become cool again. Unfortunately the set of 10 I get from Holy Rollers will *not* be going to my daughters to play with...I feel bad about that...but not much ;)
