I love making vitrigraph, I know I’ve written a couple posts about them, but I can’t help myself. The first picture is a pot prior to putting it in the kiln. The second two pictures are of the kiln starting to be prepared to pull. The 4 picture is the […]
I love creating fused glass, but as I’ve mention I don’t always finish my pieces. I love creating little panels for night lights. It took me a while, but I finally finished the ones below. I think they turned out great with all the vitrigraph, millefiori, and murrine. I also […]
One of the most time consuming and challenging fused glass techniques I make are fused glass drop vases. There are several steps involved. The first thing you have to do is to make a glass slab so to speak. It needs to be kind of thick. Then you put it […]

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 […]
One of my favorite things to do is to make custom silk screens so I can make special presents for people. Last year I made presents for my co-workers and this year is no exception. In fact, I think I went a bit crazy. First, I made little magnets for […]
