These newest tea bag holders and stirrers are especially close to my heart because I screen printed each one by hand—layering delicate designs onto the glass before firing. It’s […]
One of my wonderful students, Cindy, who has taken a few classes with me before, came to me with a big idea — she wanted to create a large, fused glass flower! This was a major project — not just because of its size, but also because of the many […]

When I was making the resin, glass, and shell artwork I had some extra resin. With my extra resin I decided to add dried flowers to some of my fused glass cabochons. This one is nice and smooth. It’s simple but really smooth. I’m not sure what I will make […]
Years ago, I made some resin and glass pieces, they didn’t turn out all that well. I couldn’t figure out how to take the edges off and make it look ok. I haven’t taken the time to make more of them. Here are the resin pieces I made years ago. […]
