This was a special class for a special student. While I normally teach using 96 COE glass, this class was unique. Cindy, who has taken several classes with me in the past, asked if we could work with 90 COE glass again. She had previously enjoyed a one-on-one 90 COE […]
Back in February, I shared a post about a special project I created for my dear friend Marilyn, who had recently lost her beloved dog, Aspen. She asked if I could make fused glass paw prints incorporating Aspen’s ashes—a heartfelt way to keep his memory close. I was honored to […]
One of my wonderful students, Cindy, who has taken a few classes with me before, came to me with a big idea — she wanted to create a large, fused glass flower! This was a major project — not just because of its size, but also because of the many […]
In March I offered a fused glass coral and flower class. I had two advanced students sign up for the class. This class has several techniques that they could make including coral, lattice, lace, and even flowers. I had two advanced students take the class. What a fun and challenging […]
Last month I posted the following new Fused Glass Plant Stakes, while I was making them I got excited about making some different plant stakes. So the tops of these plant stakes were previously casted pieces so I made the bottoms to fit and match the top. I also used […]
These fused glass poppy pendants are a series and started out as a mistake. They turned out beautifully. I added dichroic to the back, so they are nature and bling combined. Because they are transparent, and I was writing my DYK about drilling holes I thought I’d do the same […]
I’ve been making casted dog paws for quite a while. A good friend of mine lost her beautiful dog Aspen and she asked me if I could make her some puppy paws with ashes. Needless to say, I was honored to make her several paws. Here are the 4 puppy […]
I love making fused glass plant stakes and thought I’d show them off. Aren’t they beautiful. I had some large flowers that I hadn’t used and decided to create some plant stakes with these beautiful flowers. Aren’t they special, especially the ladybugs. Of course I also made a tulip and […]
I make a lot of fused glass stirrers, letter openers, plant stakes, etc and one of the best ways to display them are in the little vases I make. They are actually made out of a bottle. I use the top half for mushroom lights and the bottom make perfect […]
I held another fused glass class in July, this time it was for plant stakes and magnets. Julie and her family have taken several classes with me, they are all so creative. Here are the liability forms and their fused glass stirrers (their free gift). I also gave them an […]
With Mother’s Day coming up I thought I’d create a Fused Glass Gift Certificate and you can choose anything and in any amount you’d like. Just email me and I will create an Elegant Fused Glass Gift Certificate just for you or for your Mom or both. Here are just some fused […]
I’ve written about my production Fused Glass commercial soap dishes for hotels before. Recently I received another orders from one of my loyal hotels in California. Here they are, I’ve been so busy I forgot to take pictures of them in the kiln for their fusing and slumping but at […]
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 […]
Recently I changed jobs and though I’d make some fused glass business card holders. It’s difficult because I have so much beautiful glass. Plus, I have lots of beautiful silk-screens – that I can screen print on my glass for my holders as well as decals. That’s the most difficult […]
