For years I have collected colorful peices of glass; from jewelery, serving bowls and platers, dishes, vases, votives, to paper weights. But, I never imagined I could make any of these cherished pieces. With a few basic tools, some fusable glass, and access to a kiln I now make (and sell) jewelry, wind chimes, dishes and bowls of all shapes, sizes, and colors. I will take you through the process of design and create your uniquely beautiful, 3D pieces of glass art. With a few basic tools, some fusable glass, a design, and access to a kiln you will become proficient in cutting glass, assembling the pieces, and fusing your work into functional piesces of art. (you don't need to purchase a kiln!) By the end of the course (5-10 hours) you will have created one of the following: 4 coasters, 3 wind chimes, 2 picture frames, 2 small plates, 1 vase, or several pieces of wearable art.
