Hi Tom that looks so neat....

So you slumped the bottle first and then painted it. How high a temp did you need to go with for the paints.... just wondering and how do you like this brand of paint.

Beautiful.... great job!!! Alice De

I've made LOTS of wall pockets - I use 2-3 layers of 1/8" fiber paper. The more you use, the slower you have to raise and lower the temp. I have found that the worst breaks happen on the way down, so I take it at 50 dph. I know, it's slooow. but they don't break. On the way up, I start at 75dp...

LOVE IT... Alice De

Thank you so much for bringing this subject up. I too have the problem of doing special orders. I get them then I hate myself for accepting . I love to walk into my studio with no demands on the mind. I love to play, I love to create. After reading the posts I think I have accepted my last "can...

Wow - sort of surprised to click on here and see my name where I didn't put it. My eyes got big and I thought , "Oh boy - what did I do now" Barbara is right about it being upsidedown, but it was nice of you to post it. I sure would love to see other people's work - any more pictures? I l...

I felt so relaxed after viewing your work

Kitty is this blank painted??? I am new to slumping and fusing just wondering.... :oops: ...

Thanks for the tips.. once again, the gold leaf burned up when I sandwiched it between 2 layers ( is going to 1450 too high?) .. oh well.. may try the gold foil. However, I did have success with the mica powder, finally,- applied it very thickly to the underside of clear, then placed on top of blac...

Thanks for all the input, fellow artisans! Yes, I am using real gold leaf, from Ed Hoy's. I know the fake 'stuff' doesn't work- I had already tried that, too. I use klyr-fire to adhere. ( like a glue) So, today I will try 2 layers of leaf, and no frit to separate the glass, and keep my fingers cros...

Who cares if it is less west or east.... I want to know were it is!!!

Please list where it is. Something new always excites me!

OH I forgot one thing.... I freeze my bottle water so it will help keep things cool in the cooler. It melts and then you have a real cold bottle of water to drink
