AAE Glass Wearable Glass Art Contest - Win an Olympic Kiln, Full CBS Dichroic Sheets & More

AAE Glass Wearable Glass Art Contest
Deadline: Wednesday October 8th, 11:59pm est
PRIZES
1st Prize: Brand New Olympic Hot Box 84 Kiln (Vitrograph)
RETAIL VALUE $680
AAE Glass is a direct distributor of all Olympic Kilns and Tanya Veit has had dozens custom built for the AAE Glass Art Studio with great success.  AAE Glass is able to offer very low prices on Olympic Kilns since we sell so many each year.  If you are new to the glass fusing world and looking for a kiln to get started or if you have outgrown your current kiln and are looking to upgrade, contact Tanya today.  An advantage to buying your Olympic Kiln from AAE Glass is getting some of Tanya's personal firing schedules to get started.  
2nd Prize: TWO Full Sheets of CBS Dichroic Glass
RETAIL VALUE $300+
TWO Full sheets of CBS Dichroic Glass will go to the second place winner.  Tanya has made two designs from CBS Dichroic so popular, they changed the names for her.  The second prize winner will receive 1 full sheet of TROPICAL RAYS and 1 full sheet of SUNSET BLEND CBS 90COE dichroic glass.
We received over 150 FULL sheets of CBS dichroic glass last week.  Stock up today for your entry!
 3rd Prize: $200 AAE Glass Gift Cert (available for anything)
4th Prize: $150 Tanya Veit Designed Decal Pack
 AAE Glass offers the most unique designs and highest quality glass fusing, waterslide decals on the market.  Often imitated, never duplicated is how we like to describe them.  Tanya Veit designs these images and they are screen printed enamel for great strength and flexibility.  This allows you to cut, bend and combine without losing shape or color integrity.  You may see similar decal designs on the market, but if they don't say AAE Glass, they are not the same quality.  Choose from HIGH FIRE or LOW FIRE decals to enhance your glass art.  This particular contest requires the use of AAE Glass fused glass decals, so take advantage of 30% off while the contest runs through September 28th.
***FREE SHIPPING***
Reminder that net orders in the lower 48 states over $200 qualify for FREE SHIPPING so don't be shy.
(excludes wholesale accounts, equipment, po boxes, Alaska, Hawaii and international orders)
