Donna Marie’s Glassy Crafts

Happy New Year. I would like to Thank all my clients for supporting my craft this past year. It has been wonderful meeting each and everyone of you. I have thoroughly enjoyed supplying that smile on your face. I did not expect to be in my studio as often as I was this past year, however it was a blessing in disguise. The next few months I am excited to be working on several commissions and restoring an antique window. I wanted to share with you what I have been working on... for the past few months during my (spare) time. With the help from my husband, I was able to put it all together this past week. I put a bottle of bubbly in the center at the bottom to show you how tall it is. 5 feet. The piece is made with fused glass I designed myself and fused in the kiln over many many hours. Even the dragonflies were fused in my kiln. I love working with copper also. It is such a warm metal. I also love recycling materials in my work. I am fortunate to be married to a retired plumber who just happens to have lots of leftover copper and tools to work with it. My son is an electrician and supplies me with left over bits of copper wire to use as well. I’m so lucky. And of course I used my signature glass beads for the stamens. I hope you enjoy it and that it brings a smile to your face. For anyone living in my neighborhood, I will be putting it outside in my front yard shortly. I love that glass is so hardy. Stay healthy everyone and I will continue to post my glass pieces for sale on Facebook and Marketplace. See more

MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone. My wish is that you have a joyful and healthy holiday season. Thank you to all the people that have supported my craft this past year. Very much appreciated. I have a few last minute gift ideas for you. I have 1 Angel left at $55; 2 seagulls at $45 each. A beautiful red spinner with bevels. $55. And of course I have nightlights which have sensors instead of a switch, at $25 each which are both functional and beautiful locally made. Give me a text if you want to see any items. I’m around all the time in my home studio

4 Stained Glass Seagulls recently hatched in my Glass Studio and are looking for homes. They measure 7 x 8 and are mounted on an Apple tree limb, treated, and wrapped with cotton rope. They will make a wonderful Christmas Gift. I’m selling them for $45 each. Text me if you are interested

I’ve been busy putting a collection of Night Lights together. All have been created by me in my Kiln. After firing in the kiln, the designs are then attached to the nightlights. They have sensors so no switches. All of them come with the bulb. These make a great Christmas gift. They are both affordable and functional. At only $25 each. My studio is in my home and Covid standards are in place. Message me if you would like to take a look.

THE PATH TO SUNSHINE. This is my latest piece that I have been working on this past month. It measures 14 x 16. It’s framed with Copper Came and includes glass from Kokomo Glass company. The glass beads were all made in my Kiln. I haven’t tried anything like this before and I can say I enjoyed the experience and research. When I create a new piece, it typically ends with bring a smile to my face. I’ve achieved this. Thanks for visiting my site and seeing my latest work. If you are interested in purchasing it, send me a note

Just finished my second antique snowshoe. This one, I decided to add a stained glass polar bear. I am very happy with the way it turned out. I love the way the light comes through. I know someone is going to love putting it in either their Mountain Chalet or in a window in their home. It will make an amazing Christmas gift for someone very special or perhaps you just want to treat yourself. Send me a text if you like to see it up close. As you know my studio is Covid friendly. My first snowshoe sold within 6 hours to a very happy person. I’m still working on a couple of unique projects that I can’t wait to show you when they are finished. Stay save and healthy.....Donna Marie
