With my Fall / Christmas shows coming up I thought I’d make some holiday fused glass pieces. Starting with Halloween. My little ghost was such a cutie. I need to make another one because he’s so sweet and now has a new home. I also […]
In my glass last few blogs I talked about my class with Craig Mitchell Smith. I thought I’d show you just how talented he is. First if you want to really check out his amazing talent, click here to see his website. Craig has done several famous shows like Disney’s […]
I just finished a class with one of the most amazing Kiln-formed Glass instructors, Craig Mitchell Smith. He is incredibly talented and the way his brain works just blew my mind over and over again! I’m sure I will write about how fabulous Craig’s class was several times in the […]
I’m asked occasionally do you hate selling your fused glass. The answer is yes sometimes I do. A few years ago I had a really difficult time selling my fused glass wolf sconce. I thought it was a beautiful, and it made me sad to sell it. […]
While I was at the Woodland Park show I had a great guy and customer came in and asked if I had cuff links that would match his teal jacket. This was not the first time he has visited me, last time he purchased the fused glass cuff link snaps. […]
In the past I have made fused glass wine charms, albeit I haven’t brought them to a show in a while. I have holiday ones including Christmas, Halloween and New Years. However, during the woodland park show two lovely ladies walked into my […]

While I’m working in my glass studio I listen to books on tape or watch glass videos. Recently I finished a book by Greta Van Sustern “Everything you need to know about Social Media – without having to call a kid”. It was an interesting […]
Just finished up a custom order for fused glass flower sculptures. I’ve made several fused glass flowers before but what makes these different is they are meant to hang them on the wall. I spent quite a bit of time figuring out how to hang them and even got advise […]
For those of you who follow my newsletter you know I’ve taken a couple mosaic classes from a local mosaic glass instructor (below). I just finished another mosaic class and this time the glass is on a rock. Which I think is awesome. I think […]
Over the last few months I’ve made a myriad of sets (over 50) of Fused Glass Earrings, so for my first show 4-5 August (Mountain Arts Festival, in Woodland Park), when you buy two sets of earrings you get 1 set free (of equal or lesser value). My fused glass […]
In my last blog I talked about all the glass I purchased over the years. As I was walking around my house I also other glass I bought made. I have quite a bit so I may have to break it down into different categories. First, functional pieces. First in […]
For those who follow me know I travel a lot with my job. This month I went to Germany. It was a busy trip, but I did get to have a little bit of fun so I thought I’d write a blog about it. When I’m on my trips […]
When I go on a trip I always try to do something glass related. If there isn’t any glass related activity close by typically bring things with me to finish. Did I mention I have a bad habit of starting fused glass projects and not finishing them? One of the […]
