Where Soul Meets Craft #221

In this episode, we chat with Annie Morhauser, founder of Annieglass, to talk about what it really takes to build a design brand that lasts.

Annie began creating her signature hand-painted, kiln-fired glass in the early days of the American craft movement — and somehow turned it into a nationally recognized luxury tableware brand that’s still thriving decades later. I still love her iconic gold rimmed plates, simple and elegant.

We talk about:
• How her glass designs first caught on
• The leap from artist to entrepreneur
• Building demand for something no one had quite seen before
• Maintaining design integrity while growing a company
• And what it takes to stay creatively relevant year after year

This is a conversation about vision, resilience, evolution — and trusting your aesthetic even when no one else sees it yet.

If you’ve ever wondered how a handmade product becomes a household name, you’ll love this one.
