As those who follow me know, I typically do 3 craft shows a year, this year because of my new job I’m only able to do one, Rampart High School. I participated in the Rampart High School Arts and Craft Show earlier this month. I always love talking about and […]
We spent an entire week in Westcliffe and I have to tell you it was wonderfully relaxing. Our Christmas was quite and simple. I love the little tree. The presents we get are typically for the house. The first row of photos are two of the pictures we hung in […]
I have several of my smaller fused glass art pieces in the 3rd Street Gallery in Westcliffe. The show is called Festival of Art, it features a one-of-a-kind art and is focusing on “smaller artworks for the gift-giving season”. The gallery is also having two People’s Choice awards and two […]
I love glass. I love getting it for myself and I love giving it as gifts. This year I gave small glass dishes and magnets to my co-workers. I put a lot of thought into each one, thinking about what each person likes. Here are the magnets. I made each […]
I had my last craft show of the year 4-5 December. It was a great show. I got to see some old friends and meet new ones. Thank you for everyone who came by. I really like Doherty because it’s 2 days and much easier on my body with set […]

This month when I was putting away some of my fused glass artwork from my art show, I realized some of my dishes had round bottoms. I like it dishes that are what I call kinetic (move), but some people don’t. So I took some of my favorite molds and […]
Do you remember that line from You’ve Got Mail, “I was decorating my Christmas tree and unwrapping funky ornaments…” well I feel that way every Christmas. I have ornaments that my kids made when they were little and a couple of my polymer clay ornaments. I have ornaments from where […]
In preparation for my fused glass home show this month, I made several new functional pieces and thought I’d show them too you. First was fused glass stirrers. They make great gifts (add a box of tea or coffee etc.). They are made of all glass. This is a different […]
I was asked to make a custom kokopelli in glass a few months ago. It turned out to be my biggest piece I’ve ever made 16×24 inches. It was also pretty challenging and tough piece to make. I wanted to do it as a screen print but the only resist […]
Last year a good friend of mine who is also a social worker asked me if I’d consider donating some fused glass pendants for “her kids”. I did and it made me feel so good that I did it again this year. I picked out 100 pendants put cords on […]

I love all my fused glass pieces. Each piece I make is special and has a special place in my heart. But every now and then there is an extra special piece. I made such a piece and at the Holly Berry Art Show it went to a good home. […]
