Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day, so I’ve been making a lot of Fused Glass Hearts, this month. I’ve used different techniques to create my heart, this first group are quite large and are casted. They are a bit big for pendants but make great pocket hearts. The next technique is a […]
During one of my craft shows I met this amazing artist named Merle, she created the most amazing gourds. I wrote about her and the gourd I traded for in November. During the visit she asked me if I could give her some glass cabochons so she could include them […]
I love making fused glass Christmas ornaments. Additionally I like making stand alone (no pun intended). These little fused glass Christmas tree stands are wonderful. I haven’t glued the trees onto the stands yet so they can easily be changed out. I’m sure this design will also work for other […]
With Mother’s day coming up I was thinking about my mom, I haven’t seen her since Oct of 2019. She’s in a care facility in Tennessee but my amazing sister Joanne and her wonderful children go and see her as much as they can. Last time I saw Momma I […]

For Easter I thought I’d make couple of fused glass Easter treats. Here is my little fused glass chick. It’s made from frit in a fiber mold. Here is my little fused glass rabbit. I’m not 100% sure what I’m going to do with them but I think they are […]
You won’t believe what I just made, A fused glass wreath. It’s so pretty. It has iridized clear glass to give it sparkle. I also added some green for holly and red for berries. It’s a bit heavy so I’ll have to get a strong wreath hanger. I’m also going […]
Last month I wrote a couple of blogs about fused glass Halloween and Christmas artwork. I also made some night lights. These are a bit different, they can be interchangeable. The nightlight has a hook and can hold a fused glass art piece. Here are the 4 I made. I […]
In July, I made a lot of Fused glass stars and after taking Jodi’s class the first week in August I made even more. I’m not sure which are my favorites. I like the simple 5 point stars because they can be made in any color and typically take 1 […]
I’ve been making some more fused glass stand-ups. This time I made some fused glass ghosts. The are so cute. I’m going to try to make a pumpkin and maybe a bat too. I must admit, I really like the stand-ups. If you would like […]
July’s fused glass newsletter focuses on holiday fused glass in preparation for my glass shows. So for this fused glass blog I thought make a couple Christmas sconces. I made two candle sconces, ironically the design is candles. One slumped on a smaller mold […]
