  • Here is another example of how you can incorporate your loved-one's ashes into a cherished pendant. This time I am demonstrating my vortex design. This type of design can also be made into a marble or paperweight, but for this example, I made a pendant.
    Hope you enjoy!

      Oh, no! I just found her. So sorry to her family much love, She is a great Teacher. I taught Art for about 7-9 years. Can I ask was her death related to anything to do with her lungs or possible cancer? Not trying to pry just concerned about working with glass and the gasses. I used to do ceramics, but after my brother passed from fibrosis of the lungs and I saw how delicate the lungs can be, I sold my wheel and a small doll kiln. I am concerned about any heavy metals with heating glass becoming airborne in someway, but I want to work with glass for this reason, (memorials with my Dad’s ashes) and also because I miss sculpting something and this medium is beautiful.

      @@SouthFloridaSunshine you definitely want to use a hood that pulls all of those gases out of the space you're in. I've heard people recommend spending more on ventilation set ups than a torch and kiln because it is so critical.

      @@PurpleDog06 Thank you, appreciate your response. Unless money falls from the sky I guess I will be waiting to break into doing glass work. Just a lot of cost to get the safe set up like you mentioned and one that is out of my young ones prying hands. I think I need a close to hospital grade ventilated she shed that is also kid proof. lol

      @@SouthFloridaSunshine I'm also not able to afford an entire set up, but I've taken lessons. It's nice because equipment costs definitely add up. It's still not a cheap hobby, but it seems like a pretty cool way to make a living if you can develop enough of a talent and invest in all of the tools.

    Thank you for the great information. The tip about feeding the clear into the lense to kinda form its own shape/even out the color backing was amazing

    Amazing - so happy to see how to do the vortex. I'm a happy lady now. Thank you, Jeannie.

      Thanks! I will probably do a new vortex video and also just use a flat marver to show how to make a stubby cone if you don't have a V marver (I was asked that also). :)

      Well, I saw your V marver - and heck - went online and ordered one and have it now. teehee

    Thank you for this video! ☺️I made one of my coolest looking pendants using the vortex idea no ashes. Will try ashes another time.i imagine I can use ashes from wood stove for practice right?

    • @jeannie291
      @jeannie291  Před 6 lety +1

      I am not sure if wood ashes would be the same. You may not even have the bubbling issue with wood ash that you do with real cremains. I haven't tried it myself - - but it wouldn't hurt for practicing. :)

      She passed away a little over a year ago, are you asking where she gets the glass, ashes, or tools?

      DJDailey yes the glass and tools and oh man I’m sad to hear she passed

      TheKateRate i was too, her videos have helped me so much, glass I’d get at lampwork supplies, tools I’d get at “Abr imagery” or “mountain glass arts” websites. Tho during this quarantine I’m having a harder time finding specialty tools and resorting more to tool makers instead of big companies
