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 […]
June was a busy month in my studio, buzzing with the hum of kilns and the chatter of creative minds. One of my classes was with Meg and her daughter-in-law, Vanessa. As a little thank-you, I offered my usual free-gift buffet—hearts, earrings, pendants in every color imaginable, and cheerful magnets. […]
What happens when you mix three fabulous women, loads of creativity, and one passionate glass artist (yep, that’s me)? You get a fantastic, fused glass class bursting with conversation and talent! This month, I had the joy of hosting Christina, Amanda, and Adelaida for a fun glass adventure. I couldn’t […]
I also made these super fun little dishes—and I’m absolutely in love with how they turned out! The 3-inch and 4-inch sizes make them perfect as small accent pieces, but what really makes them shine is their artistic flair. Each one is bursting with color and personality! You’ll notice the […]
This blog post is a two-for-one treat: first, I’m diving back into one of my all-time favorite vintage curiosities—uranium glass (also known as Vaseline glass), I’ll show you the glowing creations I made from a rather dull-looking uranium plate I picked up not too long ago. If you’ve read my […]
June is shaping up to be an exciting month in my studio—I’m thrilled to be offering 5 fused glass classes! Whether you’re brand new to glass art or a returning student eager to explore new techniques, these classes are a fantastic opportunity to get creative, have fun, and leave with […]
I’ve shared several posts about donating my fused glass pieces to a truly special organization in Westcliffe called Mission: Wolf. They’re dedicated to rescuing and caring for wolves and wolf-dogs, and it’s an honor to support their mission in any way I can. Here are some of the fused glass […]
While I’ve already shared the fun we had in my private classes with Amber and Sandi this month, the very first private class I hosted was actually with Cindy—one of my returning students who’s taken several fused glass classes with this year. Normally, I teach using 96 COE (Coefficient of […]
This month has been packed with creative energy—and one of the highlights was a private class hosted by the lovely Sandi, who brought her fabulous friends Tonda, Tony, and Natalie for an afternoon of fused glass fun! There’s just something magical about friends getting together, laughing, and trying something totally […]
This month, I hosted another fun and fabulous private fused glass class. Amber discovered me through Google (which always makes me smile!) and brought along her mom Amy, her friend Sam, and Sam’s daughter, Penny, for a few joyful hours of glass fusing magic. As a thank-you, I love surprising […]
For this post, I’m combining two classes into one, simply because I didn’t have enough photos from each individual class, too busy teaching. The first class included Brenda and Cindy — their liability forms and free gifts are shown in the top row of photos. Since Brenda doesn’t wear jewelry, […]
In addition to my regularly scheduled open classes, where individuals or pairs can sign up, I also offer private fused glass classes for groups — usually up to five people. What this means is that you and two to four of your friends can schedule a special private session at […]
This special fused glass class took place at the end of March and is one of my favorite formats — a “choose your project” class, where students get to pick the project that speaks to them most! As always, I had my liability forms ready at sign-in. (After all, it’s […]
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 […]
