NEW TECHNIQUES, NEW GLASS......

Two more "carved" pieces..The heart also has "bubble powder" under the glass ~ so the bubbles ARE supposed to be there. And floating around with the bubbles is a tiny cubic zirconia!


My first go at setting a cubic zirconia into the surface of the glass ~ this is fired into place NOT glued..
It actually looks super sparkly "for real" and all going well will be the first of many :^)


And this one was a classic ~ I thought the kiln was going to go "bang"!! Fired WAAAAY hotter than is usual ~ this is not the greatest picture in the world ~ the surrounding glass looks REALLY metallic and the centre section is like looking in through a window.
It's a brilliant effect!! (well, I think so!)


And finally a few of the new glass pieces, I never got a chance to do more than these ones & I since have had more colours come in, so more on the way :^)
