Hello Christina I'm just want to say I'm sorry for your loss. I stumbled across one of her videos earlier today trying to learn glass blowing and have been watching so many since. I cant wait to take everything I've learned and been inspired to create tomorrow morning.
Christina I dont know you .I'm in tears .My heart just dropped. I've been leaving comments.My heart is with you😪🌺My name is RACHEL. I'm a artist a painter in Tx.Ive watched so many .She inspires me 🌺🦋
I watch a lot of glassblowing, and lampwork videos, but hers are the best! She explains, and takes her time.....also, no music! Awesome work. Allows people to learn and get better from her experience. Thanks so much!
Jeannie Cox, I just wanted to tell you I love your videos! You are the only one Person I love watching! You teach all the in and outs and have helped me a lot!!! I’m still extremely new to lampworking, been off and on for about 6months just because I still don’t have all the proper tools I need but I am determined to get there!!! I just wanted to say thank you and you are amazing!!!!
Hi, I am so glad my mom inspired you to continue to work with glass. She passed away in March. Please keep her videos in your heart as a training tool. She only wanted to reach and teach many people interested in lampwork.
I am brand new to glass art and lampwork. You are a wonderful teacher! I am just starting to collect all the stuff I need to get started, so I'm going to load up on your videos in the meantime. Thanks for taking the time to make them!
I just subscribed. I really just needed to see one video but I think your entire channel is everything I need LOL. I’m gonna be making some pendants soon and I do have a question for you but I’ll come back around in a little while.
Woooooooow I’m impressed 😍😍😍😍😍I was always impressed of glass making when I watched it on tv but I never tried it . I’m really really love your tutorial 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻thank you so much . You’ve got a new subscriber 💖💖💖
Love your videos! I'm hoping to get set up soon to teach myself how to work with glass...Your videos are really helping. I would love to take a class, but they don't offer them around here.

What tools are You Using Especially the tweezers you use to twist the one i had would of got Glass Stuck to Them Ect. Thank you so much for your time and consideration amazing video love the vides
Awesome video! I recently started playing with glass in Kiln and learned about coe. If I had extra stringers from fusing 96, can I use those or does it need to be a specific coe? Thanks :)
Okay, I have a question about the torch where would I go to even purchase glass the the torch the tools etc. I’ve done a lot of resin so I use a handheld torch.
Hi Jeannie, Just found your amazing video. New subscriber. I have always loved glass beads and blown glass since a child. I have never done anything like that and wasn't aware something like that could even be done in your own home. Thanks for sharing your skill. My questions , if on a budget what purchases would you recommend to get started. Did you just go all out with your purchases or did you start small ? Do you have a video telling all this if not would you please make one ? You have a great teaching skill as well.
Thanks so much! Glass could be a fairly expensive endeavor, but for just starting out, you can get starter kits (available online, one site to look at is SundanceGlass.com under "kits") for not much money. You could practice making beads, but without having a kiln to properly anneal them, I wouldn't recommend selling them. I do want to put a video together to show what is needed, etc., but I really need to get my studio organized (and finished - still don't have my walls up) to be able to show that. One important factor, even when just starting, is having good ventilation. For just practicing for short periods, you could just use a fan to vent out any torch fumes out a window - or better yet, torch outside on a back porch, etc., but proper ventilation is most important if you will be doing it often. Hopefully I will have a video out on this subject soon (got some orders to fulfill first, tho). :)
what type of get torch are you using? I like how you don't have to hold it with your hand and can instead focus on manipulating the glass with the players. Thanks.
Hi Marianna - I am using a Bravo torch here, but there are many torches to choose from. If you are mainly working with soft (or soda lime glass, 104 COE - like I am here), you can use a smaller torch like a Nortel Minor or a Carlisle mini-CC, or even a hot-head torch. But just about all of today's lampworking torches are mounted on the bench so you don't have to hold it in your hand.
I don't think a blazer torch will be hot enough to melt glass efficiently, altho I've never tried one of those myself. A Hot Head torch, which attaches to a MAPP Gas tank that you can buy at your local Home Depot/Hardware store, would probably be a better bet. They are inexpensive parts you can use to try out melting glass to see if you'd like it, but even with those Hot Head torches, it takes at least twice as long to melt the same amount of glass as an oxygen/propane torch.
Thanks! :) You can get tweezers like that at a variety of glass supply stores (I buy most online since I don't have one in my area) - - but I believe I got them at Arrow Springs. I just checked their site, and they have them on sale now for $5.95 -woot!
Thanks alot i was thinking to add a torch head to my propane tank that has the air alowed into the end without having to add any oxygen, i would forget the poop rule...
I have had many ask this question, but maybe not in this video, lol! But they are Peter's Tweezers, and I believe I got them from Arrow Springs. There is also a pair of purposely off-center tweezers which are similar, but these ones have shorter bent parts at the tip and come together evenly at the points (just an fyi). :)
I sure do! I sell just about everything I make. The best way to get in touch with me or see all my glassy stuff is through Facebook - - -- facebook.com/JeansBeads/
Yes, all the finished glass pieces go directly into a kiln to anneal - - it takes several hours to run the annealing process and then to slowly cool back to room temperature. I usually collect the glass out of the kiln the following day.
Oh I didn't know she'd passed away. I loved her video. Some lovely techniques.
I missed her voice, so I started watching. I miss you and love you, mom!

She made beautiful things!
I miss her. I used to talk about her videos back and forth. She made one for me once and mentioned my name, “Jay.” It was a borosilicate heart.
I watch a lot of glassblowing, and lampwork videos, but hers are the best! She explains, and takes her time.....also, no music! Awesome work. Allows people to learn and get better from her experience. Thanks so much!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate it. :)
I'm so glad her videos are still up. I've always wanted to do this craft and watched her videos a lot. RIP
Thanks Jeannie for all you have done for our community. You will be dearly missed! ❤️
Glad to see someone else that uses all the scraps for something. I don't throw much away. Thanks for showing it in a video.
Thanks! I still throw a lot of glass scraps away, but do try to save any little ends or the bits and pieces that end up on my bench. :)

Hey Amanda, how’s it going? Did you end up following through with your plan? If so I’d love an update on your progress.
I just subscribed. I really just needed to see one video but I think your entire channel is everything I need LOL. I’m gonna be making some pendants soon and I do have a question for you but I’ll come back around in a little while.
This cracked me up! I have scraps I've saved for decades! I never thought of this!
Me too! I'm always melting some down here and there in various ways, but I never seem to go thru ALL the scraps I have, lol!
Woooooooow I’m impressed 😍😍😍😍😍I was always impressed of glass making when I watched it on tv but I never tried it . I’m really really love your tutorial 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻thank you so much . You’ve got a new subscriber 💖💖💖
Well, I'll be darned. That LOOKS easy enough to do. Thanks so much, Jeannie Cox from Babette Cox. I sure hope we're related ... LOL
Absolutely Amazing! Thanks for sharing.
This looks like so much fun!! 😍
Wow. You make it look so simple.
I love all your videos, Jeannie!!
Thanks! :)
This is a super cool project!!!
Very good video! You make it look so easy. I'm just starting lampworking beads and glass is not easy to work with.
Love your videos! I'm hoping to get set up soon to teach myself how to work with glass...Your videos are really helping. I would love to take a class, but they don't offer them around here.

Awesome video..can you tell me what table torch you use? Im just starting so any advice would be most helpful
From this angle, it looks like a Bethlehem company torch, but not sure which one.
Im going to try this thank you!!!
Wonderful 😊
Awesome video! I recently started playing with glass in Kiln and learned about coe. If I had extra stringers from fusing 96, can I use those or does it need to be a specific coe? Thanks :)
Okay, I have a question about the torch where would I go to even purchase glass the the torch the tools etc. I’ve done a lot of resin so I use a handheld torch.
Mountain Glass, or to the companies directly. There's GTT, Bethlehem, and Carlyle to name a few.
@ thx u rock😇
RIP beautiful soul.
Can I ask how you get all those skinny scraps?
Where can I get on the machine, please?
If you Happen to See this, what Kind of burner Do you use?

How do you stop the glass from blackening...???

@@jeannie291 could i use a blazer torch? Thanks

I like these simple pendants. Could make smaller earrings, too.
Yes, that can be done.
RIP Jeannie. 😘❤️
We do the same thing with fiber arts and make scrappy hats or blanket, we refer to it as stash busting lol
This looks like so much fun! Thank you for the idea:) If I may ask, where can I get those tweezers?
Thanks! :)

Thanks alot i was thinking to add a torch head to my propane tank that has the air alowed into the end without having to add any oxygen, i would forget the poop rule...
hey there jeannie, whats the name of that little tool you used to make the loop in your pendant? looks like a giant pair of bent tweezers. thanks!
I have had many ask this question, but maybe not in this video, lol! But they are Peter's Tweezers, and I believe I got them from Arrow Springs. There is also a pair of purposely off-center tweezers which are similar, but these ones have shorter bent parts at the tip and come together evenly at the points (just an fyi). :)
excellent! thank you so much!
what torch is used?
What kind of torch is that?
This is my Bethlehem Bravo.
Do you sell these beads and twisted ? I love them but not able to make them but could use them to wire wrap and weave with!
I sure do! I sell just about everything I make. The best way to get in touch with me or see all my glassy stuff is through Facebook - - -- facebook.com/JeansBeads/
Do yu put them in the oven to cured when your done or you just leave it like that
Yes, all the finished glass pieces go directly into a kiln to anneal - - it takes several hours to run the annealing process and then to slowly cool back to room temperature. I usually collect the glass out of the kiln the following day.
That’s neat
