Not long ago, I accidentally broke one of my favorite fused glass vases. I was heartbroken—how could I throw away something so beautiful? Fused glass has a way of capturing not just light, but little pieces of your soul. So instead of mourning the break, I asked myself: What kind […]
One of the things I love most about working with fused glass is its flexibility. If a piece doesn’t turn out the way I envisioned—or if inspiration strikes after the kiln has cooled—I can simply re-fire it and transform it into something entirely new. That freedom is part of the […]
For April I am conducting the following “your choice of fused glass project” classes. I’m not a big fan on everyone making the same thing so I let my students make a myriad of different fused glass projects including: votive, night light, art piece, plant stake, magnet, casting, jewelry, etc. […]

No experience is necessary. Some of the supplies available for the egg class including vitrigraph, frit, dots, murrine, […]
I love making 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. Here are 7 of my newest 3 inch dishes. I also made these very cool dishes. One is the 3 inch […]
I love making fused glass magnets. I’ve made them in various shapes and sizes. Here are some of my new ones. This first group are little flowers. The single magnet I added a little dichroic dot. I think these are cute and fun! Perfect for the refrigerator. Here are some […]

Earlier this month I held a fused glass large vase class. These students are very experienced students, which is why they wanted to make large vases. As always I give small gifts to those who take classes with me. Here are pictures of the pendants, pocket hearts, and even St […]
In my last post I wrote about my new fused glass night lights. Another of my favorite things to make is fused glass candle shields. I make them the same way, but instead of plugging them in as a night light, they can sit anywhere and light up. Again, they […]
I love making fused glass night lights, they are one of my favorite things to make. Of course, I say that about the majority of things I make. The reason I like fused glass night lights because they are functional and art all in one. They make gifts for parents, […]

In preparation for Valentines, I held a couple’s class in January 2024. Sadly, we had a cold snowy weekend so only 1 couple was able to attend. The 3 of us had a blast! What a wonderful and friendly couple. A bit of background, typically I only post my classes […]
When preparing for a new fused glass class I always make sample pieces. It helps me give my students options and it lets me verify the firing schedule. Fused glass vases (especially large ones) can be tricky to drape. Here are some of my fused glass examples. These first 2 […]
I love making fused glass bears, they are bigger than my casted hearts. I recently made a few more and wanted to share them with you. Each one is beautiful. They are a bit difficult to display, however here are just some ideas. They can also just be by themselves […]
