Topic Reactive Glass

This lesson models the fusing, coldworking, and slumping of a simple bowl to illustrates the sumptuous earth and jewel tones produced by a reactive effect.

Petrified Wood and Robin’s Egg Blue Bowl L153

In a demonstration of rich reactive potential, this lesson combines a streaky sheet glass style called Petrified Wood with Robin’s Egg Blue, a copper-bearing opalescent.

Working with Rolled Edges L123

In this lesson, we'll make a plate that illustrates one way to harness the unique qualities of rolled edges. We'll also cover some possible variations.

Alchemy Clear Drop-Out Bowls L118

Bullseye's Alchemy Clear sheet glass styles change the appearance of silver foil when fired in direct contact with the glass. One style changes the silver to gold, the other changes it to bronze.

In this project-based lesson, we'll create a glass bowl using Petrified Wood, illustrating some of the gorgeous reactive effects this glass makes possible.

Petrified Wood Bowl L128A

In this project-based lesson, we'll work with a streaky sheet glass style called Petrified Wood, which contains a unique combination of reactive glasses that develop with heatwork

This lesson covers how to navigate design choices when working with thicker part sheets and how to minimize bubbles when working with bumpy part sheets.

Designing with Part Sheets, Part 2 L054

What should you expect when the part sheet is thicker than 3mm or if the surface is bumpy and irregular? Learn how to navigate these design choices in this lesson.

This introductory lesson focuses on how to work with three specific materials—copper leaf, silver foil, and gold foil—to achieve special effects in glass.

Using Foils with Kiln-Glass L044

This introductory lesson will focus on working with three specific materials: copper leaf, silver foil, and gold foil.

In this lesson, we will survey of the types of color reactions that are possible using kiln-glass and consider how those reactions can prove desirable.

Color Reactions and Special Effects L024

With certain glasses, chemistries will interact to create effects and different colors than what one might anticipate. Learn about the types of possible reactions, which can prove quite useful in art and design.

This project-based lesson doesn't just demonstrate how to fuse and slump a glass plate: it shows how to do so with reactive sheet glass and stringers.

Linear Reaction Plate L022

By following these step-by-step instructions you will learn how special colors and effects can be achieved when glass chemistries interact.
