What is "glass fusing"?
Glass fusing is a technique where pieces of glass are melted together in a kiln to form a single, cohesive piece. Different shapes, colors, and types of glass are arranged in a design, then heated until they melt and fuse. The fused glass is then slowly cooled to prevent cracking. This method is used to create decorative items like jewelry, plates, and art pieces. Glass fusing allows for a wide range of creative possibilities, as artists can layer and combine glass in various ways to achieve unique effects.
