I love creating fused glass, but sometimes I struggle finishing my projects especially my jewelry. So when I go on a trip I like to bring something with me to finished. I finished the following during my channel class. I love trees and these are beautiful fused glass pendants, most […]
For those who follow me know I travel a bit with my job. I’ve been to Rhode Island, Germany, London, and Alabama numerous times. Sadly there isn’t a lot of glass opportunities when I visit Alabama, but there is so much history near Montgomery; Rosa Parks, civil rights movement, etc. […]
Earlier this week I blogged about my channel class with Tonya Nelson. I really enjoyed this class. First as I mentioned I love this technique, second Tonya is a great instructor, and I made some new glass friends. Here is a funny picture of Tonya and me. As I mentioned […]
In April I took a fabulous class called Channeled glass by Tonya Nelson. Here are 2 pictures that she created (also her photos). As you can see she’s incredibly talented. First I’d like to give a little background. The first time I took a class with this fused glass technique […]
Recently I’ve been blogging about my fused glass at the flipping peddler here in Colorado Springs. So I thought I should give a shout out to Tulip’s in Denver. I’ve had my fused glass there for several years and it’s a wonderful shop. Recently when I was dropping off some […]
In December a lovely lady asked me to make a fused glass butter dish for her Amish Country Butter. If you’ve never seen this butter it’s huge. She wanted a lid with a handle. I like challenges so told her I’d do my best. The first one I made took […]
Last month I put some of my fused glass artwork in a local shop – The Flipping Peddler. Here is my first piece I sold at the flipping peddler. I also replaced it with another night light. (sorry the picture is so blurry). I went to The Flipping Peddler recently, […]
I made some beautiful fused glass succulents this month. I’m really happy with them. This is the first time I used all of my succulent molds, so this blog also counts as my new molds for the month. I love this type. The one on the left is a periwinkle. […]
For Easter I thought I’d make couple of fused glass Easter treats. Here is my little fused glass chick. It’s made from frit in a fiber mold. Here is my little fused glass rabbit. I’m not 100% sure what I’m going to do with them but I think they are […]
I love learning, all kinds of learning. After watching Craig make stands for our fused glass Irises I decided to take a class in welding. So this month, I took an Artisan welding class, with my good friend Lela from General Air here in Colorado Springs. First I want to […]
Normally I don’t teach (my studio is always messy) but occasionally I will have a friend over and we will make a fused glass piece together. Lela – One of my good friends came over the other day to make a gift for someone very special to her. We made […]
I’ve been wanting to make fused glass wine holders for quite sometime. Last time I tried it, it didn’t work. Recently one of my favorite instructors put out a video on how to make fused glass wine holders and so here are my first few. The first wine bottle holder […]
I’ve been wanting to take Craig’s poppy class so much that I thought I’d try it on my own. It’s not a poppy but I think it looks pretty nice. I used Honey Luminescent glass. It’s such beautiful glass. I used a cabochon for the center of my flower. I […]
I love making fused glass mirrors. Normally I use a mirror and small fused glass cabochons. Here are two mirrors I made recently, the first one can be either vertical or horizontal and has the glass on the inside of the bevel. The second one is round and the glass […]
