How our Bespoke Glass Printing Company Began

Glass Printing was something that founder Tina Harwood was more than familiar with. With more than 25 years of expertise in the glass decoration industry, Tina decided to embark on a journey, to establish what would become Zany Glass.

A Legacy of Expertise

Tina’s journey began as a teenager in the glass decoration industry, where she honed her skills and crafted a legacy of excellence. Her career led her to a pivotal role in a well-known water filtration company, where she not only contributed to the development of innovative printing methods but also demonstrated her ability to tackle challenging bottle styles with finesse.

The Decision to Venture into Glass Printing Independently

Driven by a passion for excellence and a vision of creating a glass decoration business on a more intimate scale, Tina made the bold decision to step away from the corporate environment. The outbuildings of her home became the birthplace of Zany Glass, a haven where creativity, precision, and personalised service converged. Tina’s bespoke glass printing in Yorkshire is nestled in the beautiful countryside, idyllic surroundings for creative thoughts and glass bottle designs to flow.

Quality Glass Printing Services

Tina’s reputation for quality work preceded her, and it wasn’t long before a previous colleague sought her expertise. Recognising the potential to offer unparalleled glass printing services, Tina embraced the opportunity to bring her vision to life. Zany Glass emerged not just as a business but as a testament to Tina’s commitment to providing quality printing services with a focus on personalised, small-scale glass decoration.

The Evolution: Growing Beyond Boundaries

As Zany Glass flourished, the demand for Tina’s meticulous printing services soared. With orders for her bespoke glass bottle printing pouring in, Tina recognised the need to expand the team while ensuring the same level of trust, experience, and attention to detail that had become synonymous with Zany Glass. In a pivotal decision, she turned to someone she knew she could rely on, her sister Vicki.

Having shared not only familial bonds but also a history of growing up together, Tina and Vicki brought a unique synergy to the business. Vicki’s experience, coupled with a shared passion, ensured a seamless integration into the Zany Glass family. Together, they form a dynamic team, harmonizing their individual strengths to elevate Zany Glass to new heights.
