ZANDERGLASS
glass art creations

These little birds are so fun to plan out, with infinite color combinations to play around with!  They have a loop on the back so that they can be hung up and enjoyed.

These bowls can be displayed on a shelf or table, but also mounted to the wall.

I love making these monstera leaves, and there will be many more to come! Since making this first one, I've been collecting all sorts of interesting glass to use next, with never-ending color combinations, so stay tuned! Mini monstera leaves are in the works right now, in fact... 

What fun it was to create this fused glass wave! It's about 7 3/4" in diameter. I'm making sturdy, fused glass stands to accompany them. They can be fired in the kiln with special heat-resistant metal hangers in place, for if hanging them in a window, for example, is a preference.

This 10"x10" glass frit painting should technically be in my Behind the Scenes section of this site because I want one more firing in the kiln. It already had two kiln firings, as each time I add shading and highlights. Frit is tiny pieces of glass. This was created with all glass except for the paint to detail the leaf veins. 

Precision was key! I got the green light to play around with the festival's logo, and I'm delighted with how they turned out! They took many more hours than one might expect on each piece... but so worth it. 🍊

One way to enjoy these little fused hearts is to carry one in your pocket, and when someone is especially kind, or if they seem like they're having a rough day, give it to them as a gift. It's the little things... and in this case, it's the little 2" hearts. 

This is just one example of the colors and textures that I used to make these, each with a beveled glass centerpiece that is especially beautiful in the sunlight. 

This one still needs a few finishing touches, but I wanted to get a photo with that dramatic glass in the background. I'll want to improve my spider-making skills; they're more difficult than they might look, but I'll surely be expert at it by Halloween 2024. 

This was my first. There will be more. Feel free to shoot me a note with color suggestions for my next ones. 

I made this holly pattern in a few sizes, keeping in mind that these ornaments can be hung anywhere, such as from a window or from a Christmas tree. 

I've made several of these beauties, but have also had a request for pink flowers, so I'm on it! :)

These now have matching colored cords on them,  but I felt compelled to share this particular photo taken the day I finished making them becuase I love how they look here with in the bright sunlight.

I cut this pattern out 6 times on each of my six, 12x12" sheets, and then matched up the rainbow colors in order, starting the red piece at a different spot for each one. I love the way the light shimmers off of this particular type of textured glass.

This 'Crystal Christmas Tree' was so fun and relaxing to make! Colorful glass frit is sprinkled on the tree as tiny ornaments. The clear, jagged pieces are cut and placed with each piece touching others in such a manner that when the project is fused in the kiln, all of the pieces fuse together nicely. 

Place them in a favorite vase, or stick them in your potted plant soil. These are in bloom year-round :)
