So you're feeling pretty proud of yourself...you finally found a blue Blenko water jug to replace the one you broke last month and you know your wife is going to LOVE this Christmas present best of all! Even better, when you pull into the garage, her car is not there so you have time to get it out of the trunk and wrap it up! My best advice at this point is...DON'T!Vintage glass does not react well to sudden temperature changes and the warmth of your hands on a cold piece of Blenko may actually cause it to crack. It is always best to take your cold glass inside and allow it to warm up to room temperature slowly with as little handling as possible. Proper handling of old glass can help it stay beautiful and intact for many years to come!
