Kiln-Formed Glass: Over 25 Projects for Fused and Slumped Designs

This enticing new book brings the magical qualities of luminous, color-rich glass to a wider audience. In step-by-step detail, Gillian Hulse demonstrates how to layer and combine clear, dichroic, and textured fusing glass with inclusions such as bubble powder to create gorgeous flat and three-dimensional pieces.

Designs such as a dragonfly panel and passionflower coasters take their inspiration from the natural world, while a love of art and textiles is the foundation of other creations—-both flat and slumped—-such as the Klimt-inspired Vienna bowl.

A comprehensive techniques section, detailed photographs and instructions, and clear templates ensure that glass enthusiasts of all levels—-including hobbyists with access to a kiln—-can create spectacular results across a range of decorative items for the home, as well as exquisite jewelry items.
