I absolutely love creating fused glass jewelry, and one of my favorite enhancements is incorporating silver into my designs. It adds elegance, brilliance, and a beautiful transformation when paired with Alchemy Glass—specifically, Silver to Bronze reactive sheet glass.

I’ve been trying to use up some of my glass and finish pieces I’ve started in the past and just didn’t finish. This post shows I’m making a bit of progress. I love screen printing and I screen-printed these pieces a while back but never finished them. The first three, […]
