From Student Sketch to Blenko Glass: Meet “Take Me Home”

Promotional banner for Averie Ellis, winner of the 2025 Student Design Challenge, featuring logos of Industrial Extension and Blenko Glass Co.

Designed by Averie Ellis, an eighth-grade student from Park Middle School in Beckley, WV, Take Me Home shines with the spirit of Appalachian creativity. As the winner of the 4th Annual Student Design Challenge—a partnership between Blenko Glass and WVU Industrial Extension—Averie’s sketch was brought to life by our artisans during her visit to the Blenko factory.

Person working with a hot object in a workshop setting, surrounded by onlookers.

Inspired by the theme Glassalachia: A Celebration of Appalachian Alchemy, this special-edition suncatcher transforms sunlight into color and story, capturing both the wonder of the mountain state and the timeless craft of glassmaking.

Every purchase supports the continuation of the Student Design Challenge, a program that introduces West Virginia students to design, craftsmanship, and opportunity in manufacturing.

Bring a piece of Appalachian imagination home, and celebrate the next generation of makers.
