With Spring just around the corner, I felt inspired to create some fused glass flowers. I had these pieces sitting in my studio for quite some time, just waiting for the right idea to come along. Finally, it clicked—why not turn them into something bright and cheerful? Once I shaped […]
As spring approaches, I thought it would be the perfect time to share a couple of my fused glass suncatchers. For these pieces, I used transparent glass to really let the light shine through and highlight the vibrant colors and playful details. Each section catches the light a little differently, […]
One of my goals this year is to step outside my comfort zone and use a new mold each month—and it’s been such a fun journey so far. Exploring different molds has really opened up new creative possibilities, from intricate textures that add depth and detail to smooth slumping molds […]
Earlier this year, I shared a blog about my fused glass stirrers and spoons, and I’m still having so much fun creating them. Stirrers are perfect for mixing tea, coffee, and even cocktails—adding a touch of handmade charm to your everyday drinks. Each one feels a little special, turning even […]
I love incorporating decals into my glass pieces—they add such a unique layer of detail and personality. Over the past year, I’ve used them on everything from candle shields and night lights to jewelry, and each project takes on a whole new life with their addition. Decals come in a […]
Normally, when I hold a class, I have a minimum of three students. However, this month I had a cozy class with just two lovely women, Jessica and Jenna. It was their first time fusing, and there’s something truly special about that first experience. As always, we began by reviewing […]
It’s been a busy month for me—I had another business trip, this time to Hawaii. Unfortunately, it was pretty rainy, so I didn’t get a chance to do too many fun things outside of work. That said, I did have a beautiful view, and I was right across from a […]
This month, I had the absolute pleasure of hosting another advanced fusing class with Jim, Julie, and Cindy—three talented artists who each have their own kilns and a real passion for pushing their skills to the next level. I love working with this group because they’re always ready to experiment, […]
I have the following classes available in April. In the photos you’ll see show only a small sampling — there are truly a myriad of possibilities, including pieces perfect for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Birthdays, and more. Every class allows plenty of flexibility so you can personalize your project and […]
I’ve mentioned some of my advanced classes before, but this one is all about Christine and Kayla. They took classes with me a while back and loved fusing so much that they bought their own kiln! Recently, they reached out wanting to dive deeper into firing schedules and really understand […]
I had the absolute pleasure of welcoming Kim and Karmen back into the studio for another fused glass class—and let me tell you, these two never disappoint. They’re both incredibly talented, and it’s always exciting to see what they’ll create next. Even though they’re seasoned students, we still start the […]
Easter is such a fun time to create bright, cheerful glass pieces, and these large fused glass eggs were a joy to make. I created four larger eggs that can either be displayed on a stand or hung as decorations. Each one has its own little springtime scene filled with […]
Here are two molds for March, there’s something really satisfying about how a mold can influence a piece without completely taking it over. For this heart, I chose a round, shallow textured mold—leaning into contrast rather than matching shapes. One of the things I love about working with molds is […]
One thing about being a fused glass artist — you start seeing opportunities to add glass to just about everything. I love incorporating glass into everyday objects like mirrors, nail files, spoons, business card holders, and anything else I can think of. It’s a fun way to turn something ordinary […]
