More Snowflakes

This are snowflakes made of clay.... I work with them as i am cutting cookies and then i painted them with acrylics. Here is part of the process once I have them in clay biscuits, after they have been fired.



Snowflakes....part 2

Here they are, the finished product... i made them blue but i am making some green ones that are waiting to be fused. Glass gives so many possibilities, I will be making new designs soon, just have to cut some more glass : S. Here are the snowflakes as ornaments, but I am thinking of making another mobile as well, endless ways to use them.

Aqui estan, este es el producto termninado... las hice azules pero tengo otras verdes que estan esperando para ser fundidas en el horno. El vidrio da un sinfin de posibilidades, pronto estare haciendo nuevos disenos, solo tengo que cortar mas vidrio :S. Aqui los copos de nieve estan como ornamentos, pero pienso hacer moviles tmabien, un sinfin de maneras de usar el vidrio. 




Snowflakes.... part 1

I was surfing on the internet the other day, and found instructions on how to make your own fused glass snowflake, i was so happy because since i did some clay snowflakes last year i was wondering how to make their glass version. Well here it is, a very good friend of mine took the photos and said that will be nice to share the process with you, my friends from Lima, here and somewhere out there :)

As you can see is not so hard, just take time, more than i wish, but the result pays for it... in the next post i will post the finished product.

Estaba surfeando la internet el otro dia, cuando encontre una pagina que daba instrucciones en como hacer copos de nieve en vitrofusion, lo cual me super alegro porque justo estaba pensando en como hacer su version de vidrio, dado que hice copos de nieve de arcilla el anio pasado. Bueno aqui esta, una buena amiga mia tomo estas fotos, y me dijo que lo postee asi mis amigos de Lima, de aqui y de donde sea que esten, puedan ver el proceso.

Como se daran cuenta, no es tan dificil, solo toma tiempo, mas de lo que desearia, pero al ver los copos de nieve, me siento recompensada. En el proximo post pongo las fotos de los copos de nieve terminados.
