I'm just going to be doing one summer fair this year, so do pop along if you're local, it would be great to see you. I'll have fused glass gifts and jewellery (perfect for end of term school gifts!). There will also be bouncy castles, pottery making, a fabulous family photographer, cream teas, Pimm's, tombolas, a wonderful raffle and lots more!

Some new designs, 100% handmade with fused glass and pure silver, each design is totally unique 😀 I'd love to know which one you like best.

***Easter Giveaway – Win this handmade, fused glass nibble dish*** I've had so little time to post recently, I'm going to say hi again with a little giveaway. All you need to do, to be in with a chance of winning this Easter nibble dish, is like my page, like this post and pop a comment below to tell me what your favourite thing is that you see on my page. You don’t have to share, but for small pages like mine it’s a wonderful way to get known so any shares would be very gratefully received. The winner will be drawn at random at 7pm on Wednesday 5th April and the dish will be posted in time for Easter 🐣 Lots of luck!

It feels like so long since I've had a chance to make anything, but today, inspired by the beautiful sunshine, I'm trying out a few new things. Fingers crossed they look good when they're cooked tomorrow!

I've put together some pictures of some of the fused glass items I have in stock for last minute Christmas shopping (or, if you're like me, the start of Christmas shopping!). Jewellery, tree hangers, pictures, coasters and dishes - perfect for presents, stocking fillers or secret Santa. If you'd like any details just drop me a PM or comment on the item you're interested in.

And here's the answer to the question 'I wonder what would happen if I put two things in the kiln together which need different heating schedules'! Egg cup plate?!

A selection of the fused glass and pure silver goodies I've been making for my first craft fair of the season this Saturday (5th). The event is fabulous and huge, great for picking up some Christmas gifts-details in the flyer in the last pic. Hope to see you there!

These retro fruit bowls are definitely my favourite design at the moment! Love the reaction between the metal in these glass colours.

Thought I'd share a couple of presents I recently made for someone who loves blue and is from Wales. I made a 30cm x 30cm blue retro fruit bowl and a pure silver daffodil pendant 😀 So nice to be able to give personalised gifts.

Hi all. I need your help with my name! I have recently been learning how to make pure silver jewellery and I've been combining it with my glass. I now make lots of glass things, some pure silver and glass jewellery and some pure silver jewellery without glass. I'm hoping to open an Etsy shop and I've been accepted by the new Amazon Handmade UK site to have my things on there too, which is exciting. My question is should I stay as Bella Vetro? It is Italian for beautiful glass and I love the name, but I wonder if it should be different now that I am making with pure silver too (Bella Argento!). I'd love to hear what you think.
