As I was preparing for my DYK in my December’s Newsletter, I came across a few other fused glass pieces that I just wasn’t completely happy with and decided I’d re-slump them. I made this beautiful leaf a few months ago, but when I slumped it I didn’t care for […]

I’ve blogged about my good friend Marilyn several times. She is a teacher and she loves the minions so I made her a sign for her students and some minion stand-ups and magnets. I must admit the little standups are so cute, and I can put any picture on them […]
