Hello to you all! ✨💫 I’m sure a lot of you have seen the Implosion/Blooming Mushrooms before….you might be thinking that this is the oldest trick in the book…and perhaps it is! 😂 That doesn’t take away from the magic of this simple technique. And knowing how to do this well makes all the difference. If you are new to flameworking this is a fantastic lesson in heat control and a quick way to make fun gifts for all of the mushroom lovers in your life! 💫🌹🍄
The main sections of this demo are in real time ..the whole process took about 15 minutes … which makes this great for quick warm up piece!🤗✨

Okay, I've never seen this method for implosion mushrooms. All the others are so complicated. This is simple and looks marvelous. And the big mushroom cap is darling. Thank you for such a clear, easy to see demonstration. Wild applause 🎉👏
Hi Linda! ✨🌹 Thank You!! 😃 It was fun to put this demo together for you all! And happy that you found it easy to understand. This mushroom bloom is a delightful piece to make, cap on or off! 😂✨ Glad you enjoyed!! Hope you’re doing well! ✨Cheers- Robin 🙏🏽👋🏽🌹🌹
❤️❤️❤️ Robin. Thank you so much for your work making these videos. They have been instrumental in my own growth as a flame worker
Hello Brian! 👋🏽✨That is wonderful to hear!! 😃 Im so glad that I can be of help to you and others looking for inspiration and support! Thank you very much for sharing…I truly appreciate it!
Cheers to you- Robin 🌹🤗🌹
Hi! I am the only one who have never seen implosion mushroom before 🤣 I love it and I have to make it tommorow as soon as possible! Thank you, thank you, thank you! The idea with two mushrooms in a one is wonderfull! Big hugs! B
Hello B!! 🌹🙏🏽 It’s funny…I honestly thought that everyone had seen this technique! I guess I was wrong! 😂 so happy you enjoyed! I can’t wait for you to try this one out…you will love it!!
Great to hear from you my dear friend! 🥰 Big hugs & Cheers- Robin 🤗✨🌹✨🌹🌈🌈🌈
These are very sweet. We do shrooms in my classes almost every semester. I teach mixed classes of beginners and more intermediate. This version would be a sweet way to give the more advanced students another option if you don’t mind my sharing. I of course, ALWAYS give you credit and recommend your channel to my students.
Hello Linda!👋🏽🌹 I would be honored for you to share this with your students!!🤗✨✨ As simple as this technique is, there are many lessons to be learned from it. Heat control, adding components, working off mandrel and ways to make loops! I only wish I had a place to teach here in a classroom setting…. great to hear from another teacher! 🤩🌹🌹 Thanks so much for sharing and enjoying!!
Cheers to you- Robin 🌈🙏🏽✨✨✨
Thank you very much❤
Hello Banu!😃✨ Many thanks!! So happy you enjoyed! 🌹 Cheers- Robin🌈👋🏽
Hi Robin, nice idea, a mushroom in a mushroom ! And thanks a lot for the good tips, I will know now how not to trap a bubble in the clear around the stem👍 ! Today, I did a similar black and white fish and coral that you did in a previous video, so double thanks ! Cheers, 🌺Sonia
Hi Sonia! 👋🏽🌹 Many Thanks!! I honestly thought I said it right about the air pocket until I reviewed it… 😅 sorry about my verbal dyslexia! I had to get the voiceover in one take because my editor is not working properly. 😆🙏🏽✨✨✨I’m so excited to hear that you made the fish and coral!! 🌈💫
Yea!!! That is awesome! Thanks for sharing 💫 Cheers- Robin👋🏽🌹🌹
Very cute, Robin. I've seen fininshed mushroom pendants before, haven't seen how they were made. Yet another one for the winter glass list. I definitely wont be running out of things to practice in the coming cool season.
Hello Jirup! ✨🌹 Isn’t this a fun technique?!🤗 I hope the weather gets cooler soon so you can start enjoying some Torch Time again! 💫✨ So happy you liked this one…Thank you!! Have a wonderful week my friend! Cheers- Robin 🌈👋🏽🌹🌹
Love this! I’m going to try it today! 🍄
Hello Teresa! 🤗✨ I’m so happy you are going to try this one. Once you figure out the heat they go by fast! 😃🌹 Many Thanks!! 💫🌹Cheers- Robin 👋🏽
What a great technique. Thanks for sharing, dear Robin! 🙏🏻💚 I would love to see
how to make these pretty jellyfish pendants. 🥰
Have a gorgeous day!
Hello Efeu!😃👋🏽 Glad you enjoyed this demo! These are so fun to make! ✨✨ I will definitely look into the jellyfish pendant… it’s been on my radar for a while! 🤗 Great to hear from you! 🙏🏽💫
Cheers- Robin 🌈🌹🌹
Looking forward. 🎉🥰👏🏻🙏🏻 Take care, dear Robin! 🙋🏻♀️
Adorable 😍
Thanks Lionel!👋🏽✨✨ Glad you enjoyed!! 🤗🌹 Cheers- Robin🌈
Robin these are so cool!
I have made so many of these and never thought of turning them into the stem of another mushroom.
Also this made me feel so much better about doing almost all of my pendant bails like that. If I try to freehand a bail in soft glass my pendants will almost always crack.
Hi Buttercup! 😃💫 Thank you!! I have seen this double mushroom design before and wanted to share my take on it….such a fun way to present the implosion part!🤗🌹✨ I too am horrible at making the loops in soft glass and not ashamed to admit it 😂😂….Im glad I’m not the only one who does it this way….Thanks for sharing! 🌹💫 Take care and big hugs my friend! - Robin 🌹✨💫
Hey Robin! This is a great video. I really like how you did the "two" mushrooms on that pendant. Haven't seen that before. I also have a glass channel, but I only use borosilicate glass. Come by and check it out! I'm going to take a look at some of your other videos. Very excited! Sim
Hello Sim! 🤩🌹 It is great to hear from you, fellow TH-cam streamer! I have to say that I have seen your videos and been to your channel several times. We are subscribed!!😅🙏🏽🌹
You are amazing with the Borosilicate and so inspiring! It is wonderful to see all the demos other flameworkers are sharing here on TH-cam. Thanks so much for stopping by! 👋🏽
Cheers my friend! Robin 🌹✨✨✨
@@scottwoodresearch Thanks so much for your kind comment 🥰. I love showing people what glass can do and all the things that you can make with it. I've never worked with anything other than boro and some fuseable glass. Is there a big learning curve to learn 104?
@FusingShop Hello Sim! ✨🌹 I love that we have TH-cam to share the amazing possibilities of glass! I also use Boro…but it depends on what I’m doing. I’m much more comfortable with the soft glass though …and I think the learning curve would be easier for a Boro worker than the other way around. The 104 is so soft! When I started playing with the Boro Glass, it felt like I was starting all over again… Like I didn’t even know what I was doing!😂 🌹✨ Cheers- Robin 👋🏽✨✨
@@scottwoodresearch Lol Robin. I've seen people work with 104 and it looks like it flows so smoothly. Then I look at my boro vids and I'm like "why is this taking sooo long." Hope you have an awesome day! Sim
@FusingShop Hey Sim! 😂👍🏽 That is so true! I have also seen a lot of people use a very small flame with the 104. (I tend to work with a larger flame on a bigger scale.) The one thing I am still aiming for, is to be able to use the thinnest stringer….It is so hard for me! 😅 I have seen people use it with the skill of a surgeon…like magic!… lol…one of these days I will make it work!! 🤩✨✨ Cheers- Robin🌈🌹
❤
Thank you Brindledragon!! 🤗🌹🌹🌹🙏🏽
Love the Shroom pendant Robin they are ace hun and I think the technique is wonderful
Thanks Kelly!! 🙏🏽🌹🌹 I will be the first to say that this design is not of my own making!😂 …As far I can tell it has been a long standing technique for all flameworkers to enjoy and share! So happy you enjoyed!! 😃💫 Cheers- Robin👋🏽✨✨
@@scottwoodresearch I just love the technique and your play on it. I showed it to a friend of mine whom is not a glass worker at all and she said it was so cool how you could do that and I explained the technique behind it and I blew her away. I’m sure I’ll convert her into a glass artist at some point lol. Hope you and Patrick are doing well my friend ❤️ 🌹
@kellytomic5372 Hi Kelly! 😁👋🏽 I love how people are so intrigued with the glass! It is a total mystery to anyone that hasn’t seen it being made before. 🤗🌹 I’m sure you sucked her in with the mushrooms…they are so magical! 🌹✨✨ Hope your doing well 👋🏽 Cheers- Robin💫🌈🌹🌹
@@scottwoodresearch my friend does find glass very intriguing and a very magical property but is still not ready to go anywhere near a torch and keeps telling me she never will be lol but I don’t believe it haha. I’m ok just been very cold all day so that has been hurting my joints but I’ve finally warmed up and it’s now 22:20pm so now in theory I should be going to sleep but I can guarantee my insomnia will stop that. I hope your pain levels are better today and you’re not having so many hot flashes. I hope Patrick is doing good too. Have a good rest of the week my friend ❤️ 🌹
@kellytomic5372 Good evening Kelly 💫 I hope you can get a good nights sleep! 😍 Patrick wanted me to tell you that he is finally sleeping almost all night ever since he started taking thc gummies. His back usually wakes him up 3 + times a night and now it’s maybe one. He is feeling better for now! 🤗🌹 I hope you find what works best for you…if you haven’t already. ✨✨ …Back to the heating pad-😂 Cheers- Robin💫
so cute, look like a pacifier
Hi Karen! 👋🏽🌹 It does look like a pacifier! 😅😂 I know some people that that would be perfect for…lol! 🤩 So glad you enjoyed & Thanks for sharing! Cheers- Robin 💫✨✨✨😂
Hi Robin, great technique, and easy to see lots of different opens to adjust the design and add more elements. Super cool as always, thanks 😊
Also continuing on from a previous chat (sorry can’t find where it was) Good point about working with boro uses up a lot more oxygen, this makes soft glass very tempting to stick with. And I noticed you use the tip of your Hellcat torch as a marver occasionally and since I’ve got a Hellcat too, it looks like a handy tip but wanted to check if this causes any issues and do you have to clean the torch face often? Thanks for a amazing lessons and wisdom 🤓👌
Hi Dan! 😃✨ Thanks so much!! There are a lot of ideas to pull from this one….Happy that you enjoyed! 💫 I do like to use the front of my torch to marver on every now and then….and It has never affected the torch itself. Patrick bought the Hellcat for me around 2010. I’ve never had to clean it or get it serviced….its been great! 👍🏽💫 I Hope yours also gives you many years of maintenance free play! 🤗🌹 I do recommend having a torch marver on top….i love using it, but usually not when I’m filming because I can’t get it all in my GoPro view. 😅 Thanks for sharing!!
Cheers- Robin 💫
@@scottwoodresearchHi Robin, that’s amazing to hear you haven’t had to clean your torch. I didn’t think about adding the GoPro as another thing you’re dealing with while teaching us 🤓 I bought Hellcat secondhand so thought I’d better give it a good clean. Some of the torch manuals suggest cleaning to torch face every time including inside the tubes! I thought this sounded over the top but it’s tricky to find any other information so big thanks as always for the info and inspiration 😁
@danbowran6684 hey Dan! When I was teaching flameworking at the museum we always had to clean the torches. New students would always get glass on the torch tips, clogging up the ports. Having a port reamer is great for that…I hope you have one on hand just in case! I have always been good to my torch, yet accidents can happen, and it’s good to know what to do if they occur! 😅
Cheers my friend- Robin ✨🌈
@@scottwoodresearch thanks for the tips Robin. Good to know is the torches don’t needed to be cleaned every time, thought that was a bit excessive! Chat soon 🤓 have a great day/night
@danbowran6684 ✨ Anytime, Dan! Thanks so much! ✨✨
