What is glass block decor?

The short answer

A decorative glass block is a hollow glass brick with a light string sealed inside and artwork applied to the face. Lit, it glows from within; unlit, it reads as a frosted block on a shelf. It is the piece people put on a hall table or a mantel and leave lit through Advent. Love & Love YAH designs each one in-house, makes it to order, and donates 10% of every purchase to a Christian ministry, mission, charity or non-profit.

Common uses

  • Advent and Christmas decor — lit through the season on an entry table.
  • Nightlight for a childs room — soft light with a verse on the face.
  • Memorial pieces — a name and dates, lit on an anniversary.
  • Mantel and shelf decor — stacked in pairs at different heights.
  • Wedding and anniversary gifts — a date and a passage on the face.

Construction and lighting

The light string is sealed inside the block through a small drilled port, with the cord exiting at the back corner. LED strings run cool, which is what makes it safe to leave lit for hours.

  • Sizes — 6x6, 8x8, and 4x8 inches.
  • Sealed LED string — 20 to 50 warm white lights inside the block.
  • Plug-in or battery — battery blocks take three AA cells.
  • Frosted or clear block — frosted diffuses the light more evenly.
  • Applied vinyl or etched face — etched artwork will not peel.

Gifting and care

Blocks are ordered heavily in November for Advent and again in spring for memorial dates. Wipe the face with a dry cloth. The block is sealed, so nothing wet should reach the drilled port at the back. 10% of every purchase is donated to a Christian ministry, mission, charity or non-profit. You are helping the Kingdom of Heaven with every purchase.

Glass block decor questions, answered

Do the lights come installed?

Yes. The LED string is sealed inside the block before shipping. Nothing needs to be assembled.

Are they plug-in or battery?

Both are offered. Battery blocks take three AA cells and are better for a table with no nearby outlet.

Is it safe to leave lit?

Yes. The strings are LED and run cool. Most people leave them on through an evening or on a timer.

Can the light string be replaced?

No. The block is sealed. LED strings rated for tens of thousands of hours are used for that reason.

Etched or vinyl artwork?

Etched is permanent and cannot peel. Vinyl allows full color. Etched is the more common choice for memorial pieces.

Can a name and date be added?

Yes on most designs, etched into the face. Allow three to five extra business days.
