I ordered my son 13 pounds of glass (all different colors in 1/4# increments) from the Frantz glass sale last month. I simply used the invoice that I went sent via email to speed up my labeling process. I just copied and pasted the information into the label format in Microsoft Word. It worked like a charm. I was able to label each rod in a very short amount of time. I then went to Home Depot and bought two of those large orange buckets with lids and some PVC pipe. I had my husband cut the pipe into 10 inch sections and placed the sections in the pails. Now my son has his glass in a covered container to prevent the dust from settling on the rods. The great part about this is that it is portable. Now he can take his glass with him when he makes beads in the art room at his high school.
