These are some of the shiniest solder lines I’ve ever made and I’m about to cover them up with black patina. 🥺

Do any of my other glass friends get ✨really✨ excited when the end of your foil roll almost perfectly coincides with the last piece you have to wrap in a project?
I know I sure do!

I love that snow in #portlandor always makes the city so cozy and cute- but also a little extra chaotic.
I was up against skiers, snowball fight kids and a handful of terrible drivers when I walked the dog.

My hands have been busy but my heart is happy.
Here are a few little mini books I’ve been working on between pet portraits.

Cadmium wings, a vibrant hue,
Glowing bright orange, it’s strangely true.

My poetry might suck, but maybe my facts don’t:
Some glass is made with minerals that fluoresce under a UV light. In this case it’s cadmium!

The world record for most pairs of underwear worn at once is 266. It was set by Australian weatherman, Steve Jacobs.
Great job Steve!

This always ends up being one of my most popular patterns around election/inauguration time. 🫣

What do we do when we’re anxious?
Break glass.

Long overdue shoutout to @jessbreaksglass.bsky.social for all the beautiful patterns they make, but this one feels especially important this week.

Can we take a moment to appreciate that this house went so hard it made their neighbors almost disappear.

This is my copper foil scrap ball. There are many like it, but only this one is mine.

It's holiday crunch time and I'm locking myself in the studio for the next 2 weeks.
What should I be listening to? What are YOU listening to?
