Thank you. This is a wonderful idea!!

1.Here's one for Vermont - they would like a wholesale #, but they let me in when I showed up at the door. They also have a retail store in Montpelier, but I don't remember the name. South Pacific Wholesale Co., 114 River Street, Montpelier, VT 05602 Phone 800-338-2162
  1. There's one in Freeport, ME - sorry don't know the name.
  2. I assume you've checked Sooz's resource list on Kandice's website, lampwork.net.
  3. Somewhere I have a list of stores in Massachusetts. I'll try to track it down. It might be from #3. Peace, Lilyflower snipped-for-privacy@theworld.com
