Glass Hearts | Fused Glass Cut Strips Scrap Glass
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 лют 2024
- Today I’m making glass hearts using small pieces of sheet glass. The glass I’m using is Bullseye Glass in Petal Pink, Red, and a little left over white streaky with pink, and pink confetti glass.
Anytime I have a strip of glass that is at least 1/2” wide, I’ll set it aside for making this type of heart.
In the example I’m showing here, you’ll see that I’m cutting the glass square 5/8” wide x 5/8” wide and 5/8” wide by 1.25” long for the rectangles. Each heart has two squares and two rectangles.
Set your first layer of glass as shown here in an “L” shape, and then alternate the next layer of glass so that the square glass is on top of the rectangle, and the rectangle glass is on top of the seam.
Thanks for watching!

Very cute! Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome!!
Very cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed the video!! Happy fusing!!
They came out great. Thank you so much for sharing the technique and firing schedule.
Thank you, and you’re welcome!
Very interesting 😊
😊
Lisa, super cute! I am so glad you did this because I made some and they were a hair too wide. I had 5/8" x 5/8" and 1 5/8" long (rectangle). They were cute but I feel could have been better. I am going to try your measurement on the rectangle and see if I like those better. I am happy to see all of your videos. It generates a lot of inspiration ❤.
Great! I’m happy this helped! I also like how the smaller hearts (.5 x .5 and .5 x 1”) look. Happy fusing!!
At 10:15, did you use a laser-printed fusible decal for the detail? Or was that done with a stencil and glassline paint (or similar) Thanks for the hint on how to make cute hearts!
I used rose murrini from GlassworksNorthwest on Etsy and pink leaves from Wilderness Glass wildernessglass.com/
After I assembled the heart I set a few pieces of the murrini on top and fired with the rest. You could use a number of floral designs. Happy fusing!
@@redlanternglass Thanks for the information!
Approx how big do the .5 x .5 and .5 x 1 hearts come out after fusing
They stay fairly close to the 1" size. From left to right - the tops of the hearts are about 1-1/8" wide but the other dimensions are about 1". This is my favorite size to make.
