In January and February. I blogged about one of my fabulous customers who bought one of my handcrafted fused glass aspens and broke it. I’ve always told my customers if they break a fused glass piece that they buy from me to bring me the pieces and I’ll make them […]
A famous fused glass Artist Boyce Lundstrom coined the phrase never refuse to refuse and I’m a firm believer in that. Earlier this month and last month I wrote blogs about refusing broken glass pieces. This one is about a fused glass piece that […]
As I mentioned in my fused glass votives blog, Tulip – Exquisite gifts / fantastic finds (the store that show cases my fused glass in Denver) also asked me to make some fused glass candle shields. I like fused candle shields because I can […]
Each month I tried to do a review of some kind of the myriad of Fused Glass DVDs, E-books, Magazines, tutorials, etc. that I watch or read. I watch several of the Glass Pattern Quarterly (GPQ) webinars. Some I watch during the first run, so to speak, so I can […]
In addition to my shows and commercial orders, I also make fused glass pieces for the shop in Denver, Tulip, that show cases my fused glass. The last time I visited Patty she asked me to make some fused glass votives and candle shields. Typically when I fire fused glass […]
The majority of last month I was busy with commercial fused glass orders so those processes and fused glass pieces monopolized the majority of my newsletter blogs. I got a short break from commercial orders and I’ve actually been enjoying my big kiln for over a week. Wow have I had […]
Last month I wrote a blog about a fused glass bowl I made out of the remains of once was a beautiful fused glass Aspen sconce. As I mentioned in that blog that the Aspen was so large (with a little extra glass), I was able to make two bowls. […]
With Valentine’s Day right around the corner I thought I’d let ya’ll know just a few fused glass presents for that special person! Fused glass functional pieces like center pieces, Flowers, poker guards, pendants, and event though I didn’t have room there’s also earrings, wine stoppers, and everything you can […]
I don’t think I’ve ever taken a picture inside my big kiln, this blog will change that. I have so many awesome pieces in the kiln I thought I’d show a quick snapshot before shutting the lid. This is whats called a slump fest I 13 different pieces […]
During a recent show one of my great customers who had bought one of my beautiful fused glass aspens came back with a bag. Inside the bag was the broken aspen. She told me that the aspen was on a shelf and got knocked to the floor. Anytime someone buys […]
This month I’ve been blogging a lot about my commercial / production fused glass orders. I mentioned that I have representatives helping me get commercial fused glass orders. Sometimes they email or call me and ask for something specific. Sometimes they […]
One of the myriad of reasons I love fused glass is how other art-forms can be incorporated into fused glass. I’ve mentioned art clay, stamping, flowers, and so many other arts. In several of my Facebook groups I follow I came across a post about Rangoli, according to Wikipedia “the […]
As I’ve mentioned many times. I love molds and I can’t seem to get enough of them. This fused glass bowl used two different types of molds. A texture mold and the slumping mold (square bowl). The nice thing about a texture […]
Over the last few months I’ve told ya’ll that I’ve created fused glass for commercial customers. For this blog I’d like to expand on it a little. Especially since I am working on two separate commercial fused glass orders right now and all of my kilns are filled so I […]
