While I was in Murano looking at all the glass it reminded me of all the glass I’ve bought from all the other places I’ve been. One of the first places I’ve ever seen glass blowing was in Sweden the first time I was stationed in Germany back in 1990. […]
In addition to the Alcohol Ink class with Cathy I also got to take Hidden Images 3-D with Cathy Claycomb. Like the first class this class wasn’t a fused glass class either. Again we used Kokomo glass, it’s so pretty, I wish it could be fused without losing it’s beauty. […]
This month I got to take a great class with Cathy Claycomb. It wasn’t a fused glass class. It was completely different. Plus the glass we used was beautiful. I’ve never really used it before, Kokomo glass and it’s not meant to be fused, but it’s so pretty it doesn’t […]
For those who follow my Fused Glass newsletter know I have an amazing family and on this Mother’s day I’m even more thankful for my amazing family. Obviously my son, David who works for Pixar and has won several awards. David did these back when he was 16 years old. […]
I love glass and I love figuring out different ways to use my fused glass. I’ve been learning a bit about resin and I wanted to see how it works with fused glass. Plus, since my kilns are full with my new fused glass production order I thought it would […]
I mentioned in an earlier blog this month I went back to Rhode Island. I’ve been to Newport twice before an I wanted to go to Thames glass and do a quick glass blowing intro. The last time I did glass blowing it was in Oregon. I enjoyed it very […]
For those of you who follow my newsletter, you know I go TDY (Temporary Duty) a lot. I just got back from a TDY to Maxwell AFB, in Montgomery Alabama. I’ve been to Montgomery several times, this time we stayed down town close to the Alabama river. […]
I’ve blogged about my fused glass flower pockets before. This time I thought I’d make some fused glass flower hangers, which instead of sitting they hang. The first fused glass hanging pocket, is a triangle. I fused some vitrigraph on top and used stainless steel […]
In April of 2017 I did an entire newsletter on Creative Paradise’s molds. I love their creative paradise’s texture molds. I used some different colors in my fused glass mantle sconces. This first one is iridized white, lady in the woods. She’s beautiful and she looks amazing with the light […]
It’s spring time so I made some pretty fused glass wind chimes. I made them with brass chain, stainless steel chain and copper wire. I think they are all pretty cool I even took some to my store in Denver. This fused […]
In my DYK for March’s Fused Glass Newsletter I focused on my class with Laurie Spray. My second fused glass project was a present for my daughter. It was supposed to be for her 19th birthday; but I couldn’t help giving it to her as soon as I got home. […]
February’s Fresh From the Kiln I made a fused glass Spirit Tablet with a feather. I liked it so much that I made another one. The problem is I can’t decide which fused glass piece to put in the middle. They are all made of glass and added gold. The […]
I’m so in spring mode, albeit here in Colorado we don’t always have a spring. Today was beautiful, but tomorrow it could be a blizzard. Anyway, I just wrote a blog about my fused glass mushrooms and last month I wrote about fused glass garden stakes. So while I was […]
I just got back from another trip to Rhode Island. What this means is I haven’t had a chance to work on much glass. However, anywhere I go I look for glass. As I mentioned in my last blog about Rhode Island, they have some amazing glass in the hotel. […]
