I’ve blogged about Mica before and even wrote a DYK about it. I love mica, it’s a mineral and actually comes in a rock form but most people think of it as a powder. Mica is used in cosmetics and electrical components. For these pieces I used mica (gold, copper, […]
As I’ve mentioned recently I’ve had a lot of custom fused glass orders. Here is another custom fused glass order I finished recently. I really like these spoon-rests. I made 12 fused glass spoon-rests for a great customer of mine. […]
I’ve blogged about my fused glass flower pockets before. This time I thought I’d make some fused glass flower hangers, which instead of sitting they hang. The first fused glass hanging pocket, is a triangle. I fused some vitrigraph on top and used stainless steel […]
In April of 2017 I did an entire newsletter on Creative Paradise’s molds. I love their creative paradise’s texture molds. I used some different colors in my fused glass mantle sconces. This first one is iridized white, lady in the woods. She’s beautiful and she looks amazing with the light […]
Last month I receive a request to make some purple fused glass mushrooms for a great customer of mine. I made these with a screen-melt technique, which is one of my favorite techniques. This first picture is trying out the recycled glass bottoms. I like them, but I thought sandblasting […]
It’s spring time so I made some pretty fused glass wind chimes. I made them with brass chain, stainless steel chain and copper wire. I think they are all pretty cool I even took some to my store in Denver. This fused […]
February’s Fresh From the Kiln I made a fused glass Spirit Tablet with a feather. I liked it so much that I made another one. The problem is I can’t decide which fused glass piece to put in the middle. They are all made of glass and added gold. The […]
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 […]
I’ve blogged about my fused glass mushrooms before but I just love them and thought I’d make some more. Some have clear bottoms, some have sandblasted bottoms and I made one with a green bottom. The bottoms are all recycled bottles. They come with fairy lights to make little night […]
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 […]
I have never been a big winter person. So I’m excited about starting to get ready for spring. I made some fused glass flowers a while back but never had a chance to finish them. In preparation for Spring I decided to finish them and I’m so glad I did. […]
Anyone who follows my newsletter knows my amazing son and his girlfriend had a beautiful daughter on the 1st of January, Mzia is my first grandbaby. From the moment David told me I was ecstatic. Madi and I were actually in town when she was born and got to see […]
Last month I made some fused glass mirrors, I enjoyed making them so much I thought I’d make a few more. My next blog is about fused glass dots. I normally use small dots but for this mirror I decided I’d use all sizes. I really like it. I covered […]
