You thought it was a joke? Today I bought my very own thrilling Bag O' Glass. Well, sort of. It started out as sheet glass. When my novice hand at scoring and grozing didn't do so well I added the scrap to the bag. Never fear, some day it will be something beautiful!
Since I'm still waiting for my first batch of PMC, and I really can't wait any longer to fire up my kiln, I've decided to try my hand at glass fusing.
Here's what went into the kiln:

Here's my kiln firing away...at a whole 68 degrees so far! It's important I leave the kiln closed now and let it run its course. When these pieces come out, they should be fully fused.
You can imagine how thrilling opening the kiln after this first firing will be. Of course I'll share; I'll post the finished photos right here asap.ps)Mom and Annie, this reminds me so much of cooking meringues...only you can't even look through the oven door!

Glass fusing is so cool. I can't wait to see how they turn out!

This quote made me think of you and Cody--
Thanks for the beautiful poem that you wrote for precious little Lil.
How'd the kiln opening go?
p.s. I have something for you. It was $0.75, but I think you'll like it all the same.
Can't wait to see what comes out. =)
I'm wearing my awesome bracelet today. Yesterday I was wearing one of the cuffs and one of my friends was soooo jealous. Good thing I have a few extra to share.
