student learning to cut glass

Younger students can work with glass! Over the last couple of years, I have seen how empowering it is for students to learn how to work with glass. Some are scared to score the glass or use the flame to bend glass but in the end, everybody is fusing and pretty impressed with themselves.

  I teach the students  to safely cut glass themselves and explore the process of kiln fired glass.  This fall Possible creations may include: clocks, pocket vases, sculpture,  small dishes and candle holders, sun catchers, jewelry, magnets and much much more.

For those of you who don't know me, My name is Nikki Contini and I am a Coleman mom of a 5th grader. I have been fusing glass since 1994.  It is my passion and favorite outlet. Over the years, I have shown my work in various craft markets,  juried shows, fundraisers, and boutiques. I have  degree in clinical psychology and have also studied Holistic Health with an emphasis on art and healing at San Francisco State University.  I have been teaching fused glass to children over the last 4 years and enjoy it very much.
