In preparation for this post I read a little about dragonflies. Did you know (according to Wikipedia) dragonflies are insects and have two pairs of strong, transparent wings, […]
I had new commercial order this month. The clear and white soap dishes are a bit of a challenge to make because I had to cut six pieces for each dish. I so appreciate my commercial orders. It’s always a challenge to make multiples of fused glass artwork. The reason […]

Recently I received an email from Laura regarding making a fused glass pendant with her dad’s ashes inside. It’s always such an honor to make custom memory pieces. I always take care and show reverence for each piece I make. Laura and I have collaborated every step of the way. […]
On the 4th of July, my husband and I drove down to Westcliffe, CO. We just really love Westcliffe. When I go there I don’t worry, I’m really just in the moment. It’s funny because we don’t do anything big, but being in Westcliffe brings us joy. The drive is […]
