- A re-visit video to my older (and blurrier) Feathered Heart tutorial. This video shows how to make a twisted ribbon heart pendant. This heart was made using soft glass (104 COE), but it can also be done in Boro.
Jeanne passed away in 2018. It’s her daughter who has kept these videos up and going. Jeanne was such a great teacher! Thank You for keeping these videos on for all of us to continue learning from!
Jeannie was such a great teacher. I miss her.
Great demo. Thank you!
That was a perfect ❤and wonderful video👀☺️✌️🖖
Jeannie I love the way you explain what you're doing and always encourage us!! You are a wonderful instructor and I really enjoy your videos.
I love how calm you are when disaster strikes! Always learning something new from you Jeannie! :)
Thanks! Yeah, I've been doing this too long to be surprised or shocked when glass breaks, lol!
Just recently became interested in the way glass, all glass... is shaped and handled. I luv your hours of experience...you do know, you make it look easy, right? lol When I find something like this now, I have the appreciation for the way it was made which really matters to me.
That was beautiful, Jeannie, thank you!!
I enjoy your vids. Calm cool tone. Great job. I look forward to what comes out next.
Love this heart and technique! Thanks for sharing.
I am new to all of this and I gotta say I absolutely LOVE your videos. Thanks so much for making them. :-)
Another great tutorial! Thank you. :)
Thank you for sharing your techniques

Thank you. I know these videos have helped me. I feel more confident learning the small things...the little techniques you don't realize like how to add glass in certain spots, "pulling-out" ends, calmly re-punting a piece etc. When I see you do these things so nonchalantly it is very helpful.
Thanks! Yes, it kind of becomes automatic over time, since it seems to happen too often, lol!
I dont mean to be off topic but does any of you know of a way to get back into an instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot my login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
@Harley Malcolm Instablaster =)
@Lewis Judah I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Lewis Judah It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account :D
Thank you and best regards from belgium
Excellent
thank you for making us these vids
You're welcome! :)
Thank you! 💜
Thank You
I have some Rhea. I think it just holds its color against silver glass when u reduce all of it. So it doesn’t discolor like other glass will
Thanks!
♥♥♥
"Rhea" is cool... it doesn't reduce! So, you can use it right next to the other DH colors and reduce those, and it won't ruin your red!
Thanks! Yeah, this was the first time using it so I wasn't sure. :)
It's fun to play around with those. I think they have a blue that works the same way, so you don't get those red flakes in it! Hey, I see you have a spinning top mold - do you make tops? Do you make them with soft glass? I can only make a good one with boro.
Haha! Yes, I have made tops, both in soft and in boro -- I also use the edge of that mold for shaping marbles sometimes.
Hi Jeannie
One issue I always seem to have while making a glass bead is fine angel hair type tailings after makings dots. What is the issue?
I have been watching your videos constantly because I want to pursue glass blowing but only to make beads and small pendants because of my eye condition. When you first first started out which torch did you use ? I'm going to be buying the bead making start kit off of Moutain Glass and it comes with a hothead torch, is that a good one too start off with
Hi Domz,
Thanks for watching my videos!! :)
There were actually 2 stages to my glass career. I first started way back in 1995 with borosilicate glass, which was a different torch (hotter torch), then I started soft glass (which most of these videos are with) in 2005-6. I believe you want the soft glass torch. I worked on a hot-head (cheap) torch, but only for a VERY short time since it was noisy and took too long to melt the glass. After about a week of that torch, I ordered a Nortel Minor. I used that one for several years and then went to the Mega Minor, which is basically the same size, but might have a slightly larger flame. Similar torches would be the Bethlehem Alpha, the GTT Lynx torch, a Carlisle Mini CC, etc.
All are decent torches for bead work like I have here in my videos, some people just have preferences of one over another, but all are good.
Trying out the Hot Head can give you a feel for glass, to see if you like it, etc., but it is MUCH slower at melting the glass, so you might get impatient (like I did, lol!). Have fun!!!
Domz, if you don't already know, Sarah Hornik made gorgeous beads w/only a hot head torch. Her work's still on Etsy if you're curious.
Awesome videos!!
When's the next one?
Thank you! :)
I was ill for a few months, but now that I'm back to work, I've been slammed with orders. I am hoping to get something done within the next month or so - - hopefully!!
Hope I enjoyed? Boy, howdy .... I sure did! Jeannie ~ What 8mm clear are you using?
I used DH Zephyr for this one. Sometimes I also use soft Lauscha.
@@jeannie291 is this boro or soft? I'm trying to learn because I really love this and want to start. No one in my area to learn from though.
It is soft glass (which is stated on the video in the description), but the same technique can also be used with boro.
Not sure if I heard it right but when you finished the pendant you said now it can go right in the kiln, was that correct? Do you now have to kiln it? Sorry, noobie.
With all glass, the outside will cool down faster than the inside leading to lots of internal stress. By using a kiln to keep it at a certain temp (960ish for soft glass) for a while to let all the internal steppes work out and then slowly cools the kiln down (couple degrees every x min, it differs based on the exact glass) it makes the glass much more resilient.
hi i like a glass business too.. can you give me advice in materials
What kind of torch do you have?
I have a Bethlehem Bravo torch now (just using the center flame of it for most of these videos), but also used a Nortel Minor for years and years (and still have it!).
Jeannie Cox I have a GTT bobcat. Are you looking for an intern or apprentice?
Haha, I don't have the facilities for a multi-person shop (in my hot garage!). But I am teaching at SW Art Glass in Phoenix. They also have open torch nights and rental torch times, too.
And - - I can always set-up a one-on-one session with you at SW Art Glass.
Jeannie Cox how much would something like that cost? I get majority of my $ on 1st of every month
Hi! I've been watching your videos lately because I've gotten into lampworking as a kind of intermediate to a larger goal of mine, ending in a (hopefully) business! You mentioned on one of your videos to add you on fb and I can't remember which one. Would it be okay if I added you? I'd appreciate it greatly =] thanks in advance!
Thanks Shannon - - my business FB page is Jean's Beads (with that heart logo on my video as the avatar). I think it's more of a "like this page" instead of "adding me".
