A Few Fused Dishes




I haven't posted anything in a long time!

Small dishes are a fun way to try new designs and techniques. These dishes are small (5"x5") and a nice size for displaying or using to collect "things" in.

The first one has dichroic accents on an iridescent blue base and black wavy noodles. The two woven dishes are made on a clear base with iridescent glass on the top layer of the weave.

Mag Not Mosaic Piece


Finished this yesterday -- all of the exchange pieces incorporated into a small mosaic wall hanging for my studio. What better way to admire my fellow CGGE artists work and get inspired? I love the way it turned out!

New Garden Pots



Just finished these yesterday. The one on the left is for my Mom for Mother's Day, she's been hinting for a mosaic garden pot for a while now LOL ;o)
Hope she likes this one.

They are both made with broken china pieces and ceramic tiles. I love the ceramic flower accents on the blue and yellow pot!

Woodland Cottage



Grouted finally!
This one is really unique -- two colors of grout and glass nuggets, very fun ;o)

New Dichroic Necklace





Made this necklace this week, it's been a week of beading for some reason. Incorporated four gorgeous dichroic lamp worked beads made by Dee Howl of New Mexico.
Thinking about listing this one on Etsy this week. Still working on 2 other new beaded necklaces.

3 Strand Dichroic Necklace



Latest beaded dichroic necklace listed on Etsy. Love the blues and greens in this one!

Mag-Nots



These are what I've been working on lately. Some of us CGGE artists are having an exchange of small originals the size of magnets without the magnet, therefore we're calling them magnots or magless. Each one had to be no larger than 2"x2" and an original design. Thankfully we only had to make 15 -- this is the first time we've had this challenge/exchange. It was a fun project and I'm excited to see them all.
