I’ve mentioned my good friend Tracy several times, but I have to give credit where credit is due. Tracy made a beautiful fused glass charcuterie board and I asked her to cut me a couple out with her water-jet cutter. Normally I don’t post process pictures, but since it’s just […]
I love making fused glass and I make various pieces when there is room in my kilns. I thought I’d show you some of the pieces I’ve made recently but don’t really fit in with other of my posts. Here are two photo stands that I made custom. Below are […]
I had a fun order recently for fused glass textured dishes. I love adding texture to dishes it makes clear much more interesting and fun. They wanted 4 rectangle and 4 round clear dishes with a spiral texture. Aren’t they awesome? I love the champagne bubbles. I also 4 blue […]
I’ve mentioned several times about commercial or production fused glass orders that I make for either hotels or restaurants. Over the last few months I’ve had several repeat orders. Here are a few. This one was for a hotel in California – soap dishes. Her free gift was also a […]
One of my customers asked me if I could make a custom fused glass feather pendant to match a jacket (left picture), I said yes of course. I use a casting mold to make my feather pendants (right picture). I used COE 90 glass for one and COE 96 glass […]
This month I received commercial production order. It was a fun one but lots of work. First I cut out squares and then I cut circles. I cut over 200 circles and only broke 2, that’s crazy good!! Then I washed them then, painted them, full fused them, then slumped […]
In March and April I wrote two DyK’s about recycled bottles. I thought I’d show you what I made with some of the tops of bottles. I love recycled bottles. Here are some using different colored bottoms. I like the different shapes of bottoms and tops. I can include a […]
After taking my glass with Craig Mitchell Smith last month I went crazy making some fused glass vases. It’s not the same technique but I am very happy with them. The first two are a beautiful amber. I really like the bases. The bottom two are really fantastic. The red […]
Recently I met an amazing woman, her name is Tracy; she is a police officer and a glass artist. This police-woman is one of the most compassionate, caring, and dedicated people I’ve ever met. We spoke about the current state of affairs and of the myriad of things she said […]
Since Father’s day is only a month a way I thought I’d do post on a possible gift for a dad or husband. A co-worker asked me if I could make a custom fused glass tie tack and cuff links for a friend of his. He asked for blue with […]
I received another commercial order for fused glass soap dishes. I know I’ve posted these before but I never get tired of making them. This glass is fantastic. As you can see each piece is completely different. They are so elegant and beautiful. Besides being so different in color and […]
