Last month I posted the following new Fused Glass Plant Stakes, while I was making them I got excited about making some different plant stakes. So the tops of these plant stakes were previously casted pieces so I made the bottoms to fit and match the top. I also used […]

When preparing for a new fused glass class I always make sample pieces. It helps me give my students options and it lets me verify the firing schedule. Fused glass vases (especially large ones) can be tricky to drape. Here are some of my fused glass examples. These first 2 […]
I make a lot of fused glass stirrers, letter openers, plant stakes, etc and one of the best ways to display them are in the little vases I make. They are actually made out of a bottle. I use the top half for mushroom lights and the bottom make perfect […]
