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’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 […]
As I mentioned in my last blog I have been finishing up some fused glass pieces. I also finished a lot of fused glass snaps. I made some normal size snaps for pendants and some small ones for earrings and rings. I also made some […]
Just thought I’d show some of my finished fused glass pieces. Because I was TDY (military term for Business trip) this month and working on production pieces I didn’t have as much time to experiment and play as much as I normally like to do. But I did get to […]
Recently I took an online webinar about donuts. It was a fascinating class and I love the technique. I thought I’d show you a couple. There are many ways to make fused glass donuts but this is a unique way and I like them very much. […]
During one of my shows last year I was asked if I could make pocket crosses. I wasn’t sure what she mean and she explained they are just to keep them in your pocket without a bail. It reminded me of worry stones. When I was stationed in Turkey, worry […]

While I was making my vitrigraph pieces I came across some glass that I wanted to refuse. Some were donut pendants that I found too large. So I decided to cut them down. I really like them now. They were casted fused glass donuts and I cut off the sides, […]
Last year I took a class with Laurie Spray on cane’s and vitrigraph. I’ve used some of the blue cane in several pieces but I wanted to use some of the orange cane I made in actual fused glass pieces. I made 3 small dishes. […]
Melanie is another one of my friends and amazing customers. She recently started a new job with foster children in El Paso county. I love children and wanted to support both the children and Melanie. So I donated over a 100 fused glass pendants. I included chains/cords and put them […]

My last craft show of the year, I’ve been busy making new fused glass artwork. First my new fused glass night lights. I love fused glass night lights they are little pieces of art. They are perfect gifts and so beautiful. I also made […]
I’ve been quite busy making some new fused glass earrings and thought I’d share just a few pictures of them. I’ve got several more both posts and dangles. Since I have so many new pairs of fused glass earrings, I’m doing a Buy 2 get 1 […]
