Stars!!

Adding some ovals to the mix

More blues!

Can you tell I like blue glass?

It's so difficult to capture the look of some glass in a photo. The large circle is a lovely milky clear glass with wispy white opaque glass and an iridescent top coat. It reflects green, pink and purple.

Pretty blues

The clear glass with the confetti/stringers is among my favorite glass to use...so pretty!

Popular design

This piece by far has been my most popular piece, both in color, shape and the use of the geode. I can recreate something similar if you are interested - just send me a message and I can design something in your price range!

This piece reminds me of a Spring day in May

Work in progress!

stART on the Street

Thanks to everyone who came out and purchased my jewelry and stained glass at stART on the Street yesterday! It's been awhile since I've done a show "for real" and I received some positive feedback about my new glass pieces - I'm excited to make more of those in the future!

Please feel free to contact me about custom pieces or future gift-giving needs!

Stained Glass Stars!

A really dreary dark overcast day today but somehow happy little stained glass stars cheer up my view out the window! 15 new stars are ready to find new homes at stART on the Street: Spring Edition on June 3 in Worcester, MA!
It helps that the rain has made my garden explode and in the background is my favorite section of the garden with the red maple and the assorted foliage (notice the totally out of place STOP sign right in the middle of the pic, ugh).
