On April 22nd I held a Fused Glass Class to creating a Forever Flower magnets gift for Mother’s Day. There were 3 lovely ladies in the class. I showed the ladies some of the options including different sizes.
BTW I held the class in another room because I was expecting to have another class right after using 90 glass and I didn’t want to there to be any chance of mixing up the glass. Here is the setup. It was a bit cramped for 3, but it was doable.
They choose to make 2 large vases and I threw in a small magnet for them since they’ve taken so many classes. Here are some pictures from class.
Below are their pieces before firing. Aren’t they beautiful. They did a magnificent job. They used the circle cutter, the strip cutter, and the grinder. It was such a fun class.
Here they are all finished. The small flower vases come with magnets and the big flower vases come with stands. Didn’t they do a fabulous job?
I know what you are thinking, Karen did you make some more to fill the kiln. The answer of course is yes, I did. Here they are. I made 2 magnets and three bigger pieces. I’m not sure what to make with them, nightlights, candle shields, or just leave them as little art pieces.
As you know I always give presents to my students, this time they had 3 different choices: pendants, stirrers, and candles. I love giving them choices. A couple chose pendants, and one chose a stirrer.
Additionally, I always have a home show set up during my classes. Here are a couple shots of the tables. Thank you for purchasing a few of my fused glass art pieces.
