I love making fused glass candle shields and night lights. Here are four of my recent candle shields. They are fun because they are small and can be made from every technique. The three on the left are made with cut glass, casts, confetti, and frit. I make my candle […]
Another technique I talked about briefly last month in my Newsletter was my Frit mix pieces. My turtle and sea horse turned out beautifully so I made a few more. The first time I fired the bear, deer, and wolf they didn’t fire quite right so I added some more […]
I love adding fused glass decals to my fused glass cabochons. Typically when I make cabochons I have a box that I put cabochons in that I think would look great with a decal. I then will sit down and look through my decals that I think match the cabochon. […]
I do shows during the year and I always have my business cards on each of my tables. I love showing my business cards off in my fused glass business card holders. I can make them in any color. Here are a few. I also have business card holders made […]
I’ve had a fun month trying out old fused glass techniques. Freeze and fuse glass is a cool technique. Basically you take powder add water put it in a mold and here is the surprise you freeze it. Once it’s frozen you fuse it. Here are some of the pieces […]
As I mentioned in a previous blog, I made 335 spirit soap dishes. When I make something there is always left over glass. I had quite a bit so I made a few great pieces. First I paired the beautiful glass with white. I made 2 rectangle platters. Then I […]
In February, I wrote a blog about my fused glass flowers. Jackie told me I should make more. So I did. I made 3; a red, mauve, and clear iridized. My problem was I couldn’t decide which stamen to use, needless to say the center piece. So I had my […]
During my home show, Sharon, came down from Denver and took several fused glass pieces for her store. I love Sharon’s store (Tulip) and I’m so glad she was able to come to my show and pick up some great pieces to take to Tulip in Denver, including: Small dishes […]
I so love to make something new and a challenge in fused glass. Recently I was asked to make a wedding cake topper. She wanted a north star with a dove. I was so excited because it’s something I’ve never made. I must admit I broke the North Star pieces […]
I love adding glass to various things, essential oil holders, nail files, spoons, and anything else I can think of. I had two ceramic rice bowls I got while I was in Japan and thought they’d look even better with glass on top. What do you think? I also got […]
I just finished 3 fused glass flowers. These are not my fancy flowers, like I learned from Laurie Spray but more simple flowers. This is me and my fancy flower. Here are my new fused glass flowers. I’ve put hangers on the back so they are perfect wall art. Here […]
My good friend Lela asked me if she could put my some of my fused glass in her Bed and Breakfast. What an honor, her bed and breakfast is beautiful and I love seeing my fused glass in such a beautiful place. Here are a few of the rooms with […]
I blogged about a Fused Glass class that I took with Laurie Spray in Sept last month. After reading my blog one of my customers told me I should make some more to actually sell, so I made 3. I think they are fantastic!! The cool thing about the flowers, […]
This month my new mold is my oval dam mold and then an oval shelf ring mold. As I was going through my glass I found some blue glass and I thought it would be perfect for this mold. I think they turned out really well, I love the transparent. […]
