--Late Fall / Holiday, 2024​
Q: Where can you find unique art glass this season?
A: At the Buena Vista Hometown Holiday celebration, Dec. 6-8, 2024! (click the link for more info). The entire weekend will be a fun-filled way to welcome Winter and the holiday season--there's something for everyone. ​​
Stop by the GEA tables during the Holiday Craft Fair in the BV Community Center, 9-4. I'll have jewelry, decor, garden, and Discounted Class coupons just for YOU.
GOT COMPANY COMING? I've got you covered!
Give a class as a gift this season--unique fun guaranteed even if you've never done fused glass before. ​
"Beginning Glass Fusing with Micro-kilns" class times are widely available, though I am working a couple of part-time day jobs to supplement----no, let's be honest----pay the bills. But for about a 2 1/2 hr. time investment, you can walk away with jewelry that catches people's eyes and that you can be proud of. And you'll be on your way to learning about the fascinating world of glass and glass fusing. (Hey, guys have taken the Beginning Fusing with Micro-kilns class just to see the kilns heat to 1500 degrees in 3 minutes.)

Fun Glass Facts:
-
​​
-
Glass is an extremely viscous substance--that is, it resists flowing. But even in its "solid" state (say, in a window pane), the glass is actually in liquid form.
-
The dichroic coating process came about through electronics manufacturing. The colored, shiny layer is made from vaporized quartz, titanium, or other metal oxides (gold, tin, or silver, usually) affixed to the glass with an electron beam. This layer can transmit one color of light and reflect its opposite color (when affixed to clear glass).
