I love making fused glass picture frames. Typically, I’ve made fused glass photo stands like the ones below, simple but elegant and perfect for snapshots. I also have made several picture frames like the below. They are open on the front and closed on the back. They can go in […]

I had another commercial fused glass order this month; this time was for a large hotel in Arizona. I’m so glad hotels, both small like last month and large support fused glass artist. Here they are in the kiln for a slump as well as them ready to go. It […]
I sent out an email giving 3 options for a fused glass class on 14 Nov and two students who have taken several classes wanted to take a private fused glass dish class with me. Normally the minimum is 3 students but Glenda and Brenda wanted to make several dishes […]
I love flowers. That being said, I am not much of a gardener, albeit I do love to make fused glass for the garden (lawn or yard) and for house plants. I’ve made several plant stakes, garden art, etc. Since I’ve tried other types of fused glass garden art, I […]

Anyone who knows me, knows I love glass. In fact, that’s why I started making glass, for me. It’s kind of funny, half the time when I make something I want to keep it. Anyway, here are a few more things I’ve made either straight up for me or I […]
Waterjet glass cut-outs are awesome, and I’ve used them in several fused glass projects. Here are just a few projects with waterjet cut-outs that I got from my good friend Tracy. Aren’t they fabulous, BTW I love my bears. When Tracy makes the cut-outs, she has lots of outlines leftover, […]

Last month I made a sign for my good friend (pictured below) and I liked it so much I thought I’d make a new sign with glass and wood. I made these Kanji (Earth, Wind, Fire, and Water) fused glass pieces a while back, but I decided they’d look better […]
My good friend Marilyn asked me if I could make her a wooden sign with my screen printing. I created the screen, screen-printed, and I also sealed it. I love it, I hope she likes it. Marilyn has 3 adorable dogs, so I made some doggie paws out of glass […]
