When I go to an art or craft show I always try to buy a piece of Art from a fellow artist. The Woodland Park arts festival this year was no exception. However, what I bought is exceptional. It’s a knife, but not any knife it’s a glass knife. How […]
I have my first Art show of the year on 6th & 7th August in Woodland Park. I’m excited, I love seeing my friends and longtime customers. As any of you know who come to visit me, I always give away presents for those of you who get my newsletter. […]
Normally when I make fused glass plant stakes they are casted or cut design pieces. Here are some examples of some of my other fused glass plant stakes. They are all fun to make, I especially like using knives as the stake portion. But recently I saw a video on […]
A month or so ago Sharon, from Tulip Gifts and Cards, asked me for some purple fused glass photo stands. You may not know this but purple glass is made with gold so it’s expensive glass. Anyway I made her several to chose from. I’m curious which one she chose. […]
Several years ago, a restaurant in Florida asked me to make some fused glass copper textured dishes. I’ve made them several times, and I just finished another order for them. I really like making these dishes, they are so much fun seeing the different pictures in the copper. They have […]
Back in 2019, I wrote a post about this great couple that told me my buddha’s aren’t buddha’s (male) but Kwan Yin / Quan Yin – Goddess of Compassion. I made a few more – I never get tired of these beautiful pieces. I’d love to know which is your […]
Recently one of my customers asked me if I could make fused glass stars. Normally when I make fused glass stars, I make them this way. However, for Sharon, she wanted them a little different. I made a few variations. She picked two different sizes – 12 all together. I’m […]
Last month I took a class with my good friend Lela. It was at a place called Brush Crazy here in Colorado Springs. You can make ceramics, wood, mosaic, painting, and more. We had so much fun, Lela is a special friend and I just can’t imagine my life without […]
I’m not sure if you’ve ever broken something that you didn’t want to throw away. Normally when I break a piece of glass, I just refuse it. However, I made this piece and it didn’t turn out the way I wanted. So, I did another firing to flatten it, then […]
I made some more fused glass flower magnets. I find these flower magnets beautiful and special. I like giving them as gifts to people who are sick, or if they’ve lost someone. They bring light and beauty anywhere you put them. I’ve added various murrine and millefiori. I hope you […]
One of my good customers and friends asked me if I had any fused glass poppies. I have the two below, one is pretty big and one I turned into an Ikebana vase. She wanted a smaller one, so I made her the poppy below, the first two pictures are […]
In the DYK I wrote about my friend Merle and the class with her friends. I also wrote a post how Merle and I did traded glass for one of her beautiful gourds. She also took some glass dots to add to her gourds. Here are some pictures of my […]
A few months ago, I made a couple fused coral or lace sconces. These “layered” fused glass sconces are a bit different, yet similar. I love this technique and think about make more. They look great with or without a candle behind them. I also put a little iridized in […]
