Get your FREE Bowl Full of Cheer pattern at www.LisaVogt.net |
“Keep it simple,” is my mantra at this busy time of year.
But simple doesn’t necessarily mean humdrum. In fact, simple quite often is very elegant. Take this cheery bowl for
example. It’s super easy to create and still makes a flashy, festive holiday decoration.
In the interest of getting you out and into your studio where all the fun
happens, I’m going to keep this post simple, too. So let’s get to it.
This bowl is made with two layers of glass plus accent pieces
on the top layer. Cut a 10-inch circle out of white glass for the base. Cut a
second 10-inch circle out of the pattern glass. Stack the pattern on the white
base. Cut 9 holly leaf shapes out of green glass. Grind them if needed to smooth
out the shapes. Position the leaf shapes and fusible pebbles on the pattern
layer. Fire the glass to a full fuse temperature. Slump into a fluted mold.
Ta-Da! You have a beautiful seasonal treasure that is sure to bring cheer to
your home for years to come.

Glass, 200, white, for the base
Uroboros
Glass, 11-29-96, Clear, Greens, Pink, Fracture, Green Streamers, for the top
layer
