One of my good friends had an old friend come to take a private class. She wanted to make fused glass flower vases. Here are a couple pictures of the setup. Kathy chose to make 4 flower vase panels and 2 flower magnets. Here are some class photos. Since it […]
A couple of months ago I finished up some of my fused glass drop vases. Here are the pictures of them and the majority of them turned out beautifully. However, there were a couple that didn’t turn out well. The first picture shows how I separated it, the how uneven […]
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 my fused glass art shows, sometimes my customers will bring in one of my fused glass pieces in and ask me to fix it. Shannon brought in this pendant and she dropped it and it broke (sadly I forgot to take a picture of the broken pieces). I took […]
A few years ago, one of my customers asked me to make a couple fused glass donuts to incorporate into her own artwork. She sent me a picture of what she made with the donuts and told me it broke. This month she asked me to make her another fused […]
Wow, I had another fused glass class thanks to Merle. This class was just Merle and her long time friend Kathy. They’ve been friends for 60 years! Kathy made 3 techniques including 3 Christmas Trees. They turn out so great, I love them. She also made the biggest pendant I’ve […]
Recently one of my customers asked me if I could make fused glass stars. Normally when I make fused glass stars, I make them this way. However, for Sharon, she wanted them a little different. I made a few variations. She picked two different sizes – 12 all together. I’m […]
I have several friends that are LGBTQ and I’ve been wanting to show my support by making Fused Glasse rainbows for quite some time. I’ve made various different rainbows, the first set is fused glass pendants. As you can see there are several types. I like them all for different […]
I love fused glass jewelry. There are so many techniques and they are all beautiful. I’ve mentioned Tanya Veit many times, she’s an immensely talented fused glass instructor. She did a video a couple months ago on what I’ll call dot jewelry. I thought I’d do a quick post about […]
One of my customers asked me if I could make a custom fused glass feather pendant to match a jacket (left picture), I said yes of course. I use a casting mold to make my feather pendants (right picture). I used COE 90 glass for one and COE 96 glass […]
I love making fused glass pocket hearts and crosses. Since it’s Mother’s day next month I thought I’d make some more crosses and hearts. I love giving them away as gifts (see my mother’s day post). Here are a few of the hearts I made. All of the hearts below […]
Recently I wrote a post about custom decals for my fused glass. Based on that post I had a request to make pendants with custom decals. I made two options for her. The one on the left is the design she sent me. Maybe it’s my eyesight, but I couldn’t […]
For Christmas I made a co-worker a beautiful purple and green fused glass bowl. I love this spirit glass but, shockingly enough I can’t find a picture of the bowl I made her. It’s similar to bowl below, but I put an elephant in one of the corners. She liked […]
Last month I received an email from a beautiful young lady who recently lost her husband. Her story really touched my heart, such a tragedy. She wanted to know if I could make a fused glass memorial pendant for her and another one for her sister-in-law. She also asked me […]
