I’ve mentioned Tracy before and I asked her to cut me out some Colorado symbols. I makes it so much easier having her cut them than me with a tile saw. Anyway, here are a couple of them that I made into ornaments. One has a blue background, one has […]
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 […]
I’ve written about Tulip’s in Denver several times. I’m very lucky that they have some of my fused glass in their shop. It’s changed hands a few times and the new owners came by to checkout my studio and to drop off some pieces and to pick up new pieces. […]
Sky and I made candles recently so we decided to make some bath bombs as well. Here are some of the supplies and some of our finished pieces. It was fun but it’s also pretty messy! I just wish I had more citric acid so we could make more. Of […]
I’ve always loved honey bees, so I made some fused glass honey bees. They are perfect for so many things. Here are some of my fused glass bees. Some bees are on stems and two are on magnets. Now how to display them. Well they are small and can go […]
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 […]
I love making fused glass pocket hearts and crosses. Since it’s Mother’s day next month I thought I’d make some more crosses and hearts. I love giving them away as gifts (see my mother’s day post). Here are a few of the hearts I made. All of the hearts below […]
