I’ve always found glass painting fascinating and I’ve watched countless videos but I have always wanted to take a class. I just learn better with hands on. Next year I am taking a class with Mark Hufford (a great glass painter). During one of my many conversations with Mark he […]
I have been busy, busy making fused glass photo stands. I love these matter of fact I’m keeping one. It’s light purple and dichroic (both expensive glass) so instead of trying to explain why it’s twice as expensive as the others. I really love […]
My mold for August is a Fused Glass wine rack mold. I chose a beautiful piece of glass so I didn’t change it a lot other than fused it with apiece of iridized glass which gives it depth. The glass as aventurine green, white, purple and really amazing. […]
I know I’ve blogged about this before but, one of the the aspects of fused glass that I love is if you don’t like it you can refuse it. When I took the glass class with Amanda in New York I mentioned that I broke one of my fused glass […]
There are many ways to create a fused glass vases, most of which I’ve blogged about before. Fused glass Handkerchief vases. They can be made with round glass or square glass, big or small. This is a fused glass handkerchief vase with handmade glass and clear glass on the […]
Before I got really crazy busy I was writing one blog a month about a new mold each month. I know it’s been a while but I have some cool molds so I thought I’d start writing my mold of the month again. This is a cool mold it’s a […]
This weekend I was able to try something I’ve been wanting to do for quite some time, Painting on glass. This paint is different than normal fused glass painting, it is pebeo paint. It goes on after all the fusing is complete and then baked in an oven to set […]
Crazy busy week I just got home from my month long trip. It’s so good to be home. I put some custom orders in the kiln as soon as I got home. This is a set of Fused Glass coasters, albeit they aren’t quite done. I’m going to put a […]

I mentioned a while back that I bought a silhouette machine to help me with my fused glass. I even made a few pendants for a good friend. Recently another good friend asked me to make some custom artwork with some pictures and copper. […]
