Normally the maximum students I host in my fused glass classes in my home studio is 5. However, for my fused glass class on the 4th of February a couple of odd consequences occurred. Roni who scheduled it asked if 6 people could participate – I said yes since y’all […]

I thought I’d make some small fused glass pieces with inclusions. This first group is special mica pieces I purchased from a fellow artist. Some I cut out e.g., hearts, and some she cut out like the cogs. The ones that are transparent can be pocket charms or I can […]
Normally my fused glass class minimum is 3 students. However, I have made exceptions for example, the class with Merle and Kathy (she wanted to make several things which is difficult with a lot of students) and when Merle wanted 8 different standing trees. So, when my friend Cheryl said […]
I had a scheduled fused glass ornament class recently, however, I also hold private classes as long as there are 3 people in the class. Brenda, the person who encouraged me to give fused glass classes to begin with, asked for a private fused glass ornament class for her and […]
In July I wrote a post about my fused glass sugar castings. In that post I said I couldn’t attach them to other things. Well, that turned out not to be accurate. I used some of the smaller ones on flower stakes. I really like them. You can still see […]
