Recently I made several fused glass flower magnets and art pieces for Mother’s Day and for shops that showcase my fused glass art. They are beautiful the way they are, but they can be displayed in various ways. The fused glass vases can be added to frames with washi paper […]
Last time we went to Westcliffe we picked up some salt and pepper from the Amish Deli. The cool thing about the salt and pepper is it comes in plastic bowls. So, I decided to buy wooden salt and pepper bowls with lids and of course I decided to put […]

I’ve written several posts on pressing glass, it’s such a fun technique. I’ve also written about silk screening. Well for this post I combined silk screening with pressed pendants. They are so thin, aren’t they awesome. I have some more pressed pieces that I need to decide what to do […]
