Powder Room Fused Glass Tile


A sample of the tiles going into my powder room.
Each tile is a little different. Finishing up the backsplash borders now. It's pretty exciting!

My NEW Kiln Room

The cool thing about having a FINISHED, new fire-resistant space  for my kins....is that it is finished!
With overhead lights in, I can once again work in there in the evening.

I still need an outdoor light (with motion sensors)...but a flashlight worked pretty well. What's in the kiln tonight? A second batch of accent tiles ( backsplash )for our partial powder room remodel. I am so excited!

Pictures.......... tomorrow!

And then more waiting...for the clear glass vessel sink....and to get the tile set up correctly....!

Stay tuned.....

Happy Passover!


This is one of my more favorite seder plates depicting the journeys we have taken as a people. It has small fused glass "blobs" or "puddles" that are tack fused to the surface of this plate. Hints of sparkling dichroic glass are mixed in with white and silver-gray glass.

As the holiday approaches I wish you all a sweet and joyous Passover!  Chag Sameach!

Bat Mitzvah Tallit Clips!



The hot pink clips actually  match the kippah (photographing glass is such a challenge!) The tallit is a light pink organza with soft pink pomegranates.

The Bat Mitzvah is tomorrow!!!!!  Mazal Tov Lily!

Before the Chain


Thank you Linda in California! Your commissioned clips are boxed and ready to be shipped. The finished product has a silver chain and a small box to keep them safe. It's all dichroic glass and the purple really pops!

A Most Wonderful Week!


Jewish Arts Month concluded Friday afternoon.
This past week I had my art on display with three other wonderful artists. Yes, we made some sales...but more importantly, we had a good time schmoozing with those who came by to check out the art. My favorite moments were actually spent talking with children who walked by and would stop in front of art that captured their fancy. They freely shared what they liked about the art...the colors, shapes, and feel!

I certainly don't want to dismiss the joy in talking with adults ..it's just that kids have such wonderfully fresh things to say....!

More glass art coming!
