Glass Fusing & Slumping

November 11, 2009 By: janis Category: Crafts, glass No Comments →

I first took a workshop by ALL FIRED UP two years ago. I have since fused flat glass pieces in my kiln. I am currently reading a book I bought on amazon.com called Warm Glass.  I am looking forward to making some glass pieces in a slump mold for Christmas.

Resources

  • Molds for Slumping are available online at slumpys.com
  • There are some basic getting started kits available at dickblick.com
  • The Corning Museum of Glass is a great website. They also have a number of videos on You Tube (which is blocked by some school system’s software unfortunately)
