When I create these small, fused glass pieces, I didn’t know what they’d eventually become—a nightlight, suncatcher, votive, or simply a little piece of art. I just start creating and see where the glass takes me! The first piece shown here was made using pressed glass and colorful glass dots, […]
I absolutely love making fused glass Christmas ornaments. There’s just something magical about turning a little piece of glass into a tiny holiday treasure. These are a few ornaments I made and finished just after Christmas last year — and I’m only now getting around to sharing them. (Better late […]
Aspens are one of my favorite art pieces I make in fused glass. Living in Colorado, I’m surrounded by these lovely trees, and I never get tired of their movement, their quiet beauty, or the way they change with the seasons. I also love incorporating the animals we’re lucky to […]
One of the things I love most about fused glass is its incredible ability to transform—again and again. A few months ago, I shared a blog post about the vase in the first picture (and another piece that was a beautiful shade of blue, though I can’t seem to find […]
I often write about my pocket hearts and crosses, but another casted fused glass piece I truly love making is my fused glass bears. These bears are a bit larger than my hearts, and they hold such a special place in my heart. For me, each one symbolizes strength, resilience, […]
Not long ago, I accidentally broke one of my favorite fused glass vases. I was heartbroken—how could I throw away something so beautiful? Fused glass has a way of capturing not just light, but little pieces of your soul. So instead of mourning the break, I asked myself: What kind […]
For April I am conducting the following “your choice of fused glass project” classes. I’m not a big fan on everyone making the same thing so I let my students make a myriad of different fused glass projects including: votive, night light, art piece, plant stake, magnet, casting, jewelry, etc. […]

I love making fused glass bears, they are bigger than my casted hearts. I recently made a few more and wanted to share them with you. Each one is beautiful. They are a bit difficult to display, however here are just some ideas. They can also just be by themselves […]
So we’ve been to Westcliffe several times, but I haven’t shown you the pictures. Here are some of my favorite photos from our trips to my little piece of heaven. The first group should be no surprise – flowers. Some were planted and some are wild. BTW when I say […]

I love making casted fused glass pieces. I recently purchased a casting mold for doggy paws. So, I started making fused glass dog paws and here are some one the ones I’ve made so far. I put flowers on one side of the paw. I like that they are 2 […]
My friend Cathy and I have had several “glass dates”. She is a mosaic artist and I’ve taken several classes with her. Cathy is a kind, loving, and giving person. Something you may not know is she was asked to create a Memorial for the Club Q victims at UCCS. […]
