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 […]
In addition, to the large fused glass production order I’ll talk about in this month’s newsletter “Did You Know” over the last three months I had several other production orders. The first one was soap dishes for a hotel in California. They have ordered from me several times and I […]
In my DYK for March’s Fused Glass Newsletter I focused on my class with Laurie Spray. My second fused glass project was a present for my daughter. It was supposed to be for her 19th birthday; but I couldn’t help giving it to her as soon as I got home. […]
Each time I fire my kiln I try to put extra little fused glass pieces in the kiln so I have a full kiln. I thought I’d show you some. This first one is a refire of a beautiful piece with a decal I love the glass as well as […]
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 […]
For those who follow my blogs, you know I love glass. Fused glass is my passion but I love all glass. So when I saw a Mosaic’s class advertised at Full Spectrum in Colorado Springs, I signed up right away. First for those who have known me for a long […]
Last year I focus on revisiting some of my favorite techniques from various classes, ebooks, and webinars. This year I want to focus on some fused glass techniques and ideas showcased in my glass magazine. I am a warm weather girl and we’ve had a few snow days and I […]
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 […]
