March 17, 2008Robin and Mimi have been working together for years (we can’t remember how long!), making beautiful fused glass creations. We order our glass from the Bullseye company in Portland, Oregon–the colors are vibrant and the quality is excellent. The glass is cut and arranged, then fused in a kiln at 1440 degrees. The plates and bowls are fired again to slump in a mold at 1200 degrees. We make colored pendants in all colors, with leather cords, but they look great on a silver chain or hoop. The bowls and plates are stunning–and so much fun to make. They are all different–each one is a collage of color. They make great wedding presents! We are currently working on a commission for the YWCA–more later! ![]()

Here are some examples of the pendants–little collages of color and light!
