So happy with how these glass ornaments turned out. I usually make jewellery but now and again I do stuff like this. Handmade glass snowdrop fox and hare plaque ornaments. They'll be available next weekend. Made by me in my glass studio in Staffordshire.

A picture describing my past week... 😂😂😂 But I've been heard in all the right places. Possibly something else to come too!

I had a great glass kiln firing with no sacrifices to the Kiln Gods! Some will be made into jewellery, some into ornaments. Once I've done that I will photograph them & make them available. Probably within the next fortnight as I'm knackered & it's only me doing it 😂

*Work in progress* I think I'm finally getting nearer to doing what I wish to do with ceramic jewellery. These were my first goes with using underglaze, and after their bisque firing. They now need covering in clear glaze, and another firing, I've yet to learn that bit!

Indeed I have! (I bruise easily, hence the bruise around it!). 50th birthday Uffington white horse tattoo rock!

3 more surprise listings! These are moon pendants/necklaces. All 3 feature iridescent glass and kiln-fired enamel painted designs by me. 2 are trees, 1 is a leaping hare silhouette.
All metal is sterling silver in these. Handmade by me in my glass studio in Staffordshire, UK.

I felt the fear and did it anyway. I did my very first ceramics firing at home. The highest I ever took a kiln to. But it seems I did it right and they fired! Next stage underglaze and wipe back! #ceramics #clay #staffordshire #terracotta

Before and after firing my glass paintings in the kiln. Unfortunately not perfect in places, the glass paint pulled up & moved the black lines. Rhe edges just aren-t crisp. I'm pushing the limits with this technique though, fine lines on top of bare glass. Ho hum. They'll beade into pendants anyway.

Work in progress! Just me and a miniscule 10/0 brush destroying my eyesight one brush stroke at a time. I need to put on darker stronger details (as glass paints fire darker), tidy up the edges and then finally fire at 775c. They'll be jewellery. #glasspainting #glass #artnouveau #snowdrops #imbolc

Another batch of pendants

Various recent makings. Glass fox & hare plaques, kiln fired painted & made by me in Staffordshire. Then some terracotta pendants at greenware stage waiting for a fire in my baby kiln that can fire earthenware.

Shock horror! Creativity from me! Dunno if it counts as I painted the foxes & hares about 18 months ago. They now have little landscapes & will be offered to the kiln gods at 750c at some point over Yule.
They'll be either plaques or candle screens. #glass #glassart #glassartist #art #staffordshire

I did a thing, a terracotta clay thing, and it actually survived its first firing. I didn't think it would!

A big big thank you to @jonasbjerre.bsky.social and Duke Special for your divine voices this year. They've been calming therapy and kept me going through a seriously traumatic year. Illnesses, crimes, court cases, the lot. Thank you so VERY much. (And I also own the albums anyway!)

When your personal life falling apart somewhat but the kiln gods were kind. The big hare is a decal of one of my drawings, but the others are hand painted. The moons will become pendants. Handmade in Staffordshire by me! #glass #glassart #glassartist #staffordshireartist #glasspainting

I managed to finally do a little work! Iridescent green moons, drilled and cut by yours truly. Then painted with specialist enamels with a super fine brush (10/0). They'll be offered to the kiln gods at 730c.
Here's hoping the kiln gods are kind. If so, they'll be pendants.

My cat Dave's current viewing is now science. He's moved on from Fray Bentos pies...
