Today we spotlight SHill Creations, a Virginia Beach-based stained glass art studio founded by Sue and partnered with local artist Korrine. Their unique, freehand-designed pieces break away from traditional templates, offering charming, one-of-a-kind works of art that bring personality and style to any space.

What makes SHill Creations even more special? Their eco-friendly approach—using vintage, recovered, and repurposed glass—and their commitment to community impact by donating a portion of profits to local animal rescues.
