Brenda Griffith has put together a really lovely and informative book with A Beginner’s Guide to Kiln Forming
from Lark Books. I’m a glass bead maker first but have found such joy in kiln forming, also known as fusing and slumping and casting…Brenda’s book really helps to expand my palette as far as possible projects as well as information on glass. You can’t have too much information about glass in my humble opinion. She shows inspiring examples of a diverse group of other glass artists and really makes you want to get out your glass and cutters and frit and go to town. I highly recommend adding this book to your library of glass reference materials. And if you’re new to glass or already have a background in it, you’ll find something for you…

Adorable chickens with egg gardens made with recycled egg cartons
Chickens and eggs are in the news virtually every day so when I spotted this adorable craft at the blog Bodenseewellen I thought I’d share it with enough time to start growing the mini garden in time for Easter. I do love that the boring egg packaging can be transformed into an adorable chicken with egg holder perfect for growing greens.
