This month I had a Fused Glass Ornament Class. As always I have my liability forms out as well as free gifts for the students. They had the choice of Fused Glass Ghost plant stakes or Halloween Pendants. As as always I have supplies out for the students including dots, […]
I love creating fused glass hearts, whether they are hand cut or casted. I saw a post on one of my fused glass Facebook groups where a Fused Glass Artist in North Carolina was asking for fused glass heart donations. I was stationed in South Carolina and loved going to […]
I love using Murrini in my fused glass art work. Most is 96 COE or 90 COE. Here are just a couple of recent examples. Murrini doesn’t just come in 90 & 96 COE, it also comes in 104 COE. In case you didn’t know the higher the COE the […]
There is a saying in fused glass “never refuse to refuse”, I’m a firm believer in that concept. When I first started fusing I got to the point where my pendants were 2 – 3 inches, which is a bit too large for some people. So I looked through some […]
One of my favorite Jewelry items to create is my fused glass snaps. Here are some of my medium snaps I’ve made recently. I also made some fused glass small snaps. Making the small fused glass snaps is very difficult. They have to fit into the bezel and that’s a […]
I’ve always struggled with making fused glass earrings because it’s difficult to get fused glass pieces similar enough in size and appearance to be earrings. I just finished a few posts, dangles, and even a few sets. Here are some of the handmade fused glass dangle earrings I made. If […]
I love Murrine and Millefiori. In fact I buy it all the time from several different artists. Murrine is little pieces of glass that are cross-sections of cane that reveal images. According to Wikipedia, murrine “first appeared in the Middle East more than 4,000 years ago and was revived by Venetian […]
I love these little fused glass dishes. The small 3-inch square dishes are perfect for rings, tea bags, spoons, a small candle, or just as a pretty little dish. I went a bit crazy and made several, whether they are 3 pieces put together like the first picture or 2 […]
Several months ago, I made a few fused glass dishes for the house in Westcliffe. I made beautiful amber, blue, and green rectangular dishes perfect for dinner and breakfast. The key is not to put them in the microwave. I love my fused glass dishes, however I didn’t make enough. […]
One of my goals this year is to use some of my glass and murine. So this post is about 6 fused glass small decorative bowls I just finished. These are not food safe, they are home decor. The first two fused glass bowls are made with pinks and purple […]
I love making fused glass dishes. This fused glass bowl has so much going for it. First, it’s spirt glass and it’s purple. You may not know this, but purple, pink, and red glass is made with gold, which is why purple glass is so expensive. It’s also transparent glass […]
Every few months Sharon from Tulips will come by and pick out some fused glass art work for her shop in Denver. Here are a few pictures from Sharon’s store and how she displays some of my glass work . Here are a few pictures of her and Brian picking […]
I’ve been to Korea a few times now, I I always walk by this wood store but it’s never been open. On this trip I walked by again and it was open. Here are a few pictures of inside his awesome shop and gallery. He’s very talented! First we traced […]
In another post, I showed you the Fused Glass Resin Mosaics I made recently. For those of you who follow my posts / newsletter you know I love flowers. I thought I’d add some dried flowers to fused glass with resin. I think they turned out really well. I still […]
