I’ve written numerous posts about fused glass hearts and hopefully you don’t mind. I love making casted fused glass because they are fun and relatively easy to make. I love giving them away and teaching people how to make them. For Christmas I gave these away to my friends. I’ve […]
I love making fused glass bears, they are bigger than my casted hearts. I recently made a few more and wanted to share them with you. Each one is beautiful. They are a bit difficult to display, however here are just some ideas. They can also just be by themselves […]
I just received a new shipment of glass nail files from the Czech Republic. They are durable, fuctional and vibrant. Additionally, they are much better and don’t wear down like the ones made in China. I have them in two sizes and 5 colors. I love how even more beautiful […]
I’ve been trying to use up some of my glass and finish pieces I’ve started in the past and just didn’t finish. This post shows I’m making a bit of progress. I love screen printing and I screen-printed these pieces a while back but never finished them. The first three, […]
I love creating fused glass hearts, whether they are hand cut or casted. I saw a post on one of my fused glass Facebook groups where a Fused Glass Artist in North Carolina was asking for fused glass heart donations. I was stationed in South Carolina and loved going to […]

I love fused glass eye glass holders. My favorite is the one with my children, but I also like my snap eyeglass holders, because I can change it out anytime I like. Making fused glass eye glass holders is a bit of a pain because the glass has to fit […]
One of my favorite things to say about fused glass is “everything looks better with glass”. I’ve added fused glass dots to spoons, boxes, knives, and so much more. Here are just a few examples. This time I added fused glass to tiny bottles. Aren’t they so cute. They can […]

A month or so ago I added some fused glass to spoons. I really liked how they turned out, here they are again. I’ve been wanting to do the same with knives, they turned out great. I also have some tiny spoons which are perfect for smaller teacups, etc. Aren’t […]

Perfect for the refrigerator and holding small notes. I also have tiny, fused glass magnets again perfect for the refrigerator, […]
