Last year, I was in Korea during the Woodland Park Mountain Arts Festival and sadly had to miss it—but not this year! I was so thrilled to be back for the 40th anniversary of this wonderful event, and I’m so glad I made it. The festival is held in Memorial […]
My regular classes can hold up to five students, and this session was a full house with all five spots filled. Three of the students were good friends who came together, and the other two were a husband-and-wife team. It made for a lively, creative, and fun atmosphere! As always, […]
A few months ago, we were having dinner at a friend’s house when they offered Dan some whiskey. I overheard him say, “Karen won’t want whiskey,” and I couldn’t help but laugh—“What? I want a shot!” Back in the day during our TDYs, Jerome and I had our fair share […]
I truly enjoy going through my fused glass pieces and giving them a little extra charm by adding decals. It’s such a fun and creative way to elevate a piece and make it even more meaningful. Here’s one of my recent favorites—it’s both beautiful and uplifting. I started with a […]
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 […]
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 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. […]
This month I had a wonderful class with two talented students, which yes is less than my minimum of three students. I had a third student scheduled, but she dropped out and I didn’t have time to get a 3rd student and I didn’t want to punish my other two […]
For March I am conducting the following “your choice of fused glass project” classes. What that means is each student can make a fused glass project of their choice including: votive, night light, art piece, plant stake, magnet, casting, jewelry, etc. Classes cost starts at $30 (price depends on your […]
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 my December Newsletter I mentioned that I’ve changed jobs. This is germane to this post because now I won’t be going TDY (business trips) as much; therefore, I am going to have more classes each month (3 or 4). Just like my Valentine’s Couple’s class, I opened this “Your […]
