This blog post is a two-for-one treat: first, I’m diving back into one of my all-time favorite vintage curiosities—uranium glass (also known as Vaseline glass), I’ll show you the glowing creations I made from a rather dull-looking uranium plate I picked up not too long ago. If you’ve read my […]
I absolutely love creating fused glass pocket hearts. There’s something magical about taking pieces of glass and transforming them into something so deeply meaningful. These fused glass hearts are more than just pretty—they represent kindness, connection, and care. Every time I sit down in my studio to make them, I […]
At work, we have an AI expert who not only uses artificial intelligence daily but also teaches others how to make the most of it. When I asked him about it, he said, “If you’re not using AI, you’re behind the power curve.” That got me thinking. I started experimenting […]
I was going through some of my older pieces and decided to change them up a bit. First, I found some poker guards that didn’t really fit as poker guards. So I changed the 3 of them to large snaps. I love the tree of life. I made it into […]
This is an extremely personal post. A few months ago, my nephew passed away. My sister asked me if I could make some cremation crosses for her and his family. I first made her some pocket crosses with the ashes on the back. Pocket crosses are kept in your pocket […]
I made a Fused Glass Table for myself for Westcliffe and I’m so excited about it. This is my first time I made a fused glass table. I used my favorite glass, the colors are so beautiful and reminds me of Westcliffe. Isn’t it fabulous? I love it!! I also […]
My good friend Marilyn asked me if I could make her a fused glass sign for her office. She wanted it to say, “The Ovary Office”! I think it looks fabulous! I added lots of vitrigraph, millefiori, and murine. I love it, I hope she likes it too. I love […]
Anyone who knows me, knows I love glass. In fact, that’s why I started making glass, for me. It’s kind of funny, half the time when I make something I want to keep it. Anyway, here are a few more things I’ve made either straight up for me or I […]
Last month I made a sign for my good friend (pictured below) and I liked it so much I thought I’d make a new sign with glass and wood. I made these Kanji (Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water) fused glass pieces a while back, but I decided they’d look better […]
My good friend Marilyn asked me if I could make her a wooden sign with my screen printing. I created the screen, screen-printed, and I also sealed it. I love it, I hope she likes it. Marilyn has 3 adorable dogs, so I made some doggie paws out of glass […]
For those who follow me know I love Westcliffe Colorado and those same people know I love making custom glass artwork. This blog is combining both of those loves. A good friend of mine has a new house in Westcliffe, and I wanted to make a couple of house warming […]
A few years ago, one of my customers asked me to make a couple fused glass donuts to incorporate into her own artwork. She sent me a picture of what she made with the donuts and told me it broke. This month she asked me to make her another fused […]
A few years ago, one of my good customers asked me to create a 12 fused glass spoon rests with standup metal holders. It’s kind of funny it took me forever to get the firing schedule and size right, so you’d think I’d remember. She asked me to make her […]
I love making custom glass with photos on them. I’ve written numerous posts about the Photo Glass pieces I’ve made; I print the pictures and then bake them onto the glass. I’ve wanted to make this for momma this piece for about 3 years now. My mom is turning 85 […]
