After School Fusing Bonanza!


Glass Class this session has been a fun, creative whirlwind of Glass Fusing Fun.. With a slightly younger group, abstract designs and color explosion is where its at!
Fused Glass Framed Mirrors

This session, students have been busy learning the fundamentals of Fusing while creating functional and beautiful work. So far, projects have included night lights, mirrors, wall plaques, little dishes, magnets and pendants. Check it out...
As always, working with glass stringers and the flame is a big hit. 
Glass Frit  (ground up glass) is a strong second. There is a festive feel to pieces. Lots of orange and contrasting color. With two 1st grade boys at the helm, a glass enthusiastic 2nd grader and my own think out side the box 4th grader... - wild experimentation is the driving force! 
Our next project is the class auction piece. This will be a collaborative project. We have been discussing ideas as a group and the children are very excited to make something for the school. Now, we just have to agree on what to make. I will keep you posted!

With the holidays around the corner- its a great time to plan a fusing workshop!
give me a call and lets get fusing!
