Earlier this month I did a post about the glass pieces that I made and gave to Mission Wolf. As you can see by the below it is a wonderful organization. I encourage you to visit the sanctuary (Saturday or Tuesdays). My husband, my best friend, her husband, and I […]
I am a believer in giving back. I’ve donated fused glass pendants and other artwork to various charities. As anyone who talks to me or reads my newsletter knows I love Westcliffe. There is a place in Westcliffe that is a sanctuary for wolves. I’m not the best to donate […]
A couple of months ago I finished up some of my fused glass drop vases. Here are the pictures of them and the majority of them turned out beautifully. However, there were a couple that didn’t turn out well. The first picture shows how I separated it, the how uneven […]
I’ve mentioned my fused glass classes over the last few months, and I will always show off my students work. Last week I had a private class with some of my previous students. They wanted to make Fused Glass Ornaments and standing trees. As always, I had the room all […]
I really love giving fused glass classes. Two people who have taken classes with me before asked me if their daughter could take a class with them. I’ve been a bit concerned about giving a class to children under 18 (glass cuts), but since Jeremy and Julie have taken two […]
I had a scheduled fused glass ornament class recently, however, I also hold private classes as long as there are 3 people in the class. Brenda, the person who encouraged me to give fused glass classes to begin with, asked for a private fused glass ornament class for her and […]
I conducted a Fused Glass ornament class this month. I hope Chris, Julie, and Jeremy had as much fun as I did. The three of them also took a small dish class with me a few weeks ago and I showed them some sample ornaments and they signed up for […]
Last month I made some fused glass Santa and Snowman dishes. These 3 photos are my snowmen dishes, I think they are so cute. I really like adding the vitrigraph to the bottom. I also made some Santa dishes. I like them too, especially the beards. I like them better […]
It’s time to get ready for the holidays with this fun fused glass ornament class. I’m having a fused glass ornament class in my home on 9 Oct from 12:00 to 14:00. No experience is necessary. With my instruction/guidance through the fused glass process you will create two fused glass […]
My good friend Tracy and her friend Geri came over for an impromptu Fused Glass Christmas Tree Class. We had a good time. They used vitrigraph, dots, and did a fabulous job. We made several and they gave me some recommendations for additional color of trees. The first one is […]
Recently one of my customers asked me if I could make fused glass stars. Normally when I make fused glass stars, I make them this way. However, for Sharon, she wanted them a little different. I made a few variations. She picked two different sizes – 12 all together. I’m […]
I love Colorado and I love making fused glass. I have made ornaments in the past and I made another one. Additionally, I made something new with my Colorado’s, a nightlight. I also made little fused glass Colorado magnets. Additionally my friend Tracy made some Colorado state dishes. They have […]
In October I wrote a post about my new faux stained glass ornaments. I took them to my shows at Liberty and Rampart. Obviously I sold some as ornaments but I also had a customer ask me if I could change the one below into a nightlight. Because it had […]
In 2020 I made special ornaments to represent Covid. So this year I decided to make a special Christmas ornament for 2021. It’s a syringe to represent the vaccination. I think they turned out pretty cool. I didn’t make many of them and I took one into work. I’m curious […]
