Fusing glass to steel is an ancient form of alchemy that is being used today to create colorful and lasting artwork. Alisa Looney will lead you through the process of creating your own pair of earrings and pendant from start to finish.
Enamel (glass) on steel jewelry is lightweight and fun to wear! The Owl earrings and pendant shown above are samples to give you an idea of what is possible. You are welcome to make a similar design, or invent one of your own, working from sketches, photos, doodles or patterns that inspire you.
