Most of the projects are pendents. There's one broach and three pairs of earrings. In case you don't know what fused glass is. You layer fusible glass, in this case small pieces, then fire them in a kiln till they melt together. It's interesting to see how the glass blends in the kiln. For the most part I like the interest of the bubbles in the glass but some people prefer no bubbles. I think it shows that's they're hand made. Bubbles tend to form in the spaces between the pieces of glass.
For a better look these will be gradually posted to my ArtFire store. Some of the photos didn't come out so good so I'll have to do them over again. I can certainly say I'm hooked on hot glass.
Of course fused glass isn't all I've been doing.
I've made a necklace loaded with flowers.
Then a spiral beaded blue and green necklace.
The color of that necklace got me on a blue and green kick and I love the cha-cha bracelets. So......
Since the weather has been so bad, this weekend, some of our plans got canceled. I really didn't mind because that gave me more time in the basement. I'm still working on my goal of learning new stuff. Last night I made a hammered copper cuff bracelet with turquoise and coral riveted to the front with copper wire.
And there you have it. My latest projects.
