Artist Leslie Egenberger began hand-painting creative glassware in her Portland, Oregon kitchen in 1997. In the beginning, only friends and family enjoyed her fun, colorful creations at her girlfriend's get-togethers and as special gifts. While still working her day job in sales and marketing, Leslie started successfully selling her unique wares at regional arts and crafts fairs.In 2000, she took the plunge and established Leslie Hand Painted Glass as a full time business. By 2002, she had expanded to her current market position as a wholesaler to the specialty gift industry.
President, artist, and designer Leslie is always expanding her broad assortment of products with new designs and unique “Girl Talk” sayings. Leslie Hand Painted Glass is always new, always fun and always unique.
Today, Leslie Hand Painted Glass is sold to over 750 quality retailers across the United States, Canada, Guatemala, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. By September of 2007, Leslie sold more than 10,000 “Wine Girls” alone, over two cases for every day of the year!
