Tipp designer features in Made Local Campaign

Geraldine Gleeson of Glass by Ger from Co Tipperary is participating in the Design & Crafts Council Ireland Made Local Campaign.

The Fethard-based woman is featuring in the Design & Crafts Council Ireland Made Local campaign. She makes fused glass which is joining together pieces of glass at high temperatures in a kiln.

The Made Local campaign celebrates the exceptional talent, skill, and creativity of Ireland’s designers and makers from studio to shop shelf. It is a reminder to people that buying locally produced, well-crafted products is much more meaningful, sustainable, and impactful.

This year, Made Local is calling on retailers across Ireland to register to become a member of the campaign. By joining Made Local retailers across Ireland can show their support for the Irish design and craft industry by stocking beautiful products Made in Ireland.
