Crazy About Glass
They make an eye-catching window display! Beautiful and Bright to bring happiness to your day! The mandala design is fused on the glass and will not rub off or fade!
A bit on my process….The glass starts as a sheet, I cut two circles from this sheet and fuse (melt at about 1460 degrees Fahrenheit) them together. Once cool, I do some cold working on a glass grinder and then they go back into the kiln to be fire polished. Once this firing cools, the mandala design is added and then the hole is drilled. The whole process takes about 48 hours.
I share my light with you! Each piece I create has a bit of my heart and I appreciate you taking the time to view it!
Measures almost 4” inches flat round and has a strong black cord
Thank you for your interest!
