People ask how I get inspiration. The truth is, it comes from all over, but it really starts to form in that space between being awake and sleep. When my mind is free to wander. The Bison Skull Mosaic came from that half awake state.

You may not know, but the makers of the original conversation hearts, Necco, went out of business in 2018. There were other candy hearts with messages, but not the original, chalky tasting ones that people love, but never eat. Then the conversation heart business was saved when Spangler swooped in. However, when they started production, there was a glitch in the system and most of the hearts were blank! Sweethearts Conversation Hearts Are Back, But They're Not Very Chatty

Lanterns are really popular with stained glass artists. If you look online you'll see hundreds of inspired and creative designs. It's a great example of how each artist responds to the same challenge in their own unique way.
The perameters I was given for this project were: Winter scene, peach and light blue.

Wind chimes are a wonderful way to memorialize a friend, relative or a cherished pet. I've had the honor of making several memorial wind chimes and each time it's a challenge to create something unique that represents the family member.

If you've been working with stained glass for any length of time, you know what flux can do to your favorite tools.
Flux corroded tools look oxidized and don't move freely, sometimes not at all. You don't want to buy new tools every time this happens.
I did a little research (so you wouldn't have to) and this is what worked for me.
1. Put your tools in a plastic container and fill it with white vinegar until it covers the tools.
