Fused Glass Trays,Plates and a Bowl

The dishes are slumped. The jewellery still needs fire polishing and bails. Tomorrow is another day.

When I stacked the 2 plates/trays and the bowl together I realized they would make a nice dinner ware place setting. Maybe by the end of the summer a new set of dishes.

This is a 3 section serving dish, would also make a very nice centerpiece with candles and beach stones or some crystals.

This is the bowl done in the same colours as the serving tray.

The 2 together with my helper in the back ground. She decided it was time for a nap, wish I could have joined her.

Smaller of the 2 plates.

Picture 182

Larger plate, much less dark blue. I love these colours.

From this angle you can see the contours of the plates.

See you tomorrow for jewelry.

Try,Try Again

Well the kiln is full again tonight and have the small cast glass jewellery pieces in once again. This time I used medium frit for the pieces so we will see in the morning how they turn. Also did them in a dark purple and clear as well as cobalt blue and clear. Definitely will be freckled. Will post pictures in the morning.also have some pieces in for a 12in snack tray, small sushi plate and some soap dish sizes. As well tried my new frit maker today. It is surprising how much frustration you can take out with this thing.

At the end I took some of the frit and used it on a 10 in circle. It is all transparent and will be fully fused. I have a picture in my mind but don’t think this will be it. Probably should have held off until I was doing some tack fusing.

Oh well tomorrow will tell.

New Fused Glass Pieces


This came out of the kiln this morning. The 2 green trays are done with 2 layers of clear and a combination of frits that remind me of tide pools formed between rocks once the tide goes out.
"Missy" the face has been slumped into a bowl and will end up in a gallery in Cheticamp in a folk art gallery .
The lattice work bowl is destined for a shop in Mahone Bay. Check out my web site
www.caperglasscreations.com
to see where our pieces are carried.
The final tray is going to the Cape Breton Center for Craft and Design for their auction Friday night.
Hope they have a successful night.
