Something new from the kiln this week, I literally did a happy skip, around the work shop!

These are on pre-order so message me or pop in the shop and they will be ready to post November 1st.

These are £15 and come boxed and are approx 10cm

More new decorations to follow

I have to give a HUGE shoutout to Michelle Joy for this absolutely gorgeous fused glass wreath. 😍

What I love most is that Michelle didn’t stop after the first firing. She took the piece back to the kiln for a second firing and added all these beautiful little embellishments that completely transformed it.

This is exactly the kind of creativity that inspires me taking something through another layer, another idea, another firing, and seeing where it goes.

And honestly, I’m completely honoured that she took one of my humble little moulds and turned it into a true work of art. That is one of my favourite things about creating moulds I make the starting point, and then artists like Michelle take it somewhere I never could have imagined.

And let’s give her some extra kudos because this beauty didn’t just get admired…

SHE SOLD IT IMMEDIATELY. 🙌🔥

That’s a pretty fantastic testament to both the artist and the art.

Well done, Michelle. I absolutely love what you’ve done with it! ❤️

Michelle’s studio is Shelden Glass

PS next mold drop is October 1st! To get the details be sure you are on the list! Firsttoknow.michellefrost.com
