I’ve always struggled with making fused glass earrings because it’s difficult to get fused glass pieces similar enough in size and appearance to be earrings. I just finished a few posts, dangles, and even a few sets. Here are some of the handmade fused glass dangle earrings I made. If […]
I have a large family and an even larger extended family. Here are just a few of the posts I’ve written about my family. I love them all so very much! This month I went to Texas to visit my Family and Friends. My first stop was to visit my […]
I love Murrine and Millefiori. In fact I buy it all the time from several different artists. Murrine is little pieces of glass that are cross-sections of cane that reveal images. According to Wikipedia, murrine “first appeared in the Middle East more than 4,000 years ago and was revived by Venetian […]
I love these little fused glass dishes. The small 3-inch square dishes are perfect for rings, tea bags, spoons, a small candle, or just as a pretty little dish. I went a bit crazy and made several, whether they are 3 pieces put together like the first picture or 2 […]

I love writing my posts and newsletter. I have a section for sells, but I don’t update the sales section very often. The other day I actually made a sale, and it really shocked me. I sold the poker guard below. I included a black velvet bag with the poker […]
I love fused glass eye glass holders. My favorite is the one with my children, but I also like my snap eyeglass holders, because I can change it out anytime I like. Making fused glass eye glass holders is a bit of a pain because the glass has to fit […]
I was going through some of my older pieces and decided to change them up a bit. First, I found some poker guards that didn’t really fit as poker guards. So I changed the 3 of them to large snaps. I love the tree of life. I made it into […]
