Freeforming Elements in Fused Glass (Part 1)

The best way to enhance your projects is to pre-fire elements you want to include in your pieces. Creating flowers is an easy way to start. As you experiment, you will get all kinds of ideas about the things you can make to add to other projects.
I used a tack fuse schedule for this firing of my elements.

Love the way you cut the rod, in all my years of fusing never thought to try that

[@KathyLuglio]

It's so cute. Have you tried using white stringers for the panes instead paint?

[@glendasnailham8275]

Wow you have given me something new to try thank you

[@moltenworksglassstudio]

Awesome!

[@StephFuses]

I love the rod clusters especially. I'll have to try that way for cutting glass

[@moltenworksglassstudio]

Thank you!

Very lovely designs! Thanks for the video! 🤩 I have a question.. Can you write the formula of the glue and the brand please. I'm from Spain, and i don't catch well this. My English is not so good. Regards from Costa Blanca Valencia! 💚🌅💚

Thank you! I use bullseyes glue and water it down so it’s not so thick. You don’t have to add water though.

What's the paper that you use to prevent the glass to fuse with the kiln? Could we use regular paper?

[@moltenworksglassstudio]

I use bullseye thin fire paper. Regular paper cannot be used. This paper is specifically for kiln use and is a ceramic bonded material that turns to powder after one use. I use this instead of kiln wash which would also work and is cheaper.
