More recycled glass with emamel color

Window glass turns a fine ice-blue color after being fired in the kiln.



I love the ice-blue color, 
but adding a bit of enamel can bring a new dimension to my glass pieces.


I ordered a sample selection of enamels from Thompson Enamel 
and have loved experimenting with the opaque and transparent colors.

Pre-fired glass blanks in the kiln. 
The enamel colors don't really show themselves until after firing.

The bowl below was made from the bottom right blank.




I love the color.

Recycled glass w/ enamel color

I am really enjoying the use of enamels with recycled glass to add a bit of color.

 a bit of color brightens the cold days. . . 

This square dish will be great for organizing my desk.


The yellow and orange colors really shine through on this wonky bowl.


I still need to smooth the edges of this blue bowl. I can't wait to get it finished.
