Welcome. I use a combination of many techniques in my jewelry making. Some of the jewelry uses the traditional copper foil method, where the foil is wrapped around the glass. This is the method I started with 20 years ago and find it works beautifully for some designs. The fused method is using a kiln and the glass is fired to 1490 degrees. A slot is then ground into the side so I can wire wrap the piece. Some of the designs use tumbled glass which I tumble in a rock tumbler for 4 days. The glass becomes frosted and looks like it just came off the beach. All my work is original and crafted with joy, by myself.
