Where does the time go? Why do I start with such a boring, oft-said question? Because time did go somewhere, away from me. In a good way, as I hope it was for all of you. Holidays, family, cozy warm drinks and fireplaces, hot cocoa or walks in the cold outdoors. With the new year, […]

I know it’s under the wire for saying something. 😛 This year I am joining forces with the incredibly talented Sam Hingston, so that you can visit a wood-working studio and a glass one at the same time! I am shlepping my torch, my kiln, all of it, to his place near 217 in Beaverton […]
I’m sitting in a small coffee shop in my town with a big decaf Americano, it’s Thursday, and I have sort of decompressed from the Gathering of the Guilds this week, and sort of not. I keep dreaming that I will sit on my couch with a lovely book, perhaps in the late afternoon sun, […]
It’s April! I have been so remiss in blog entries for a couple months, and I do apologize. I know, I know, you missed my missives so. I will try to make up for it with this one. I hope all of you are doing well right now, happy in life and love and family. […]
I’m sitting here in my jewelry studio, trying to subdue a headache by will alone, mostly because I want to work on this blog instead of wandering upstairs searching for a Tylenol. There’s so much to share! I hope the holidays were a time of happiness for you, however you spent them. Mine were very […]

It’s been quiet at juiceglass.com. At least, as far as the world can see. But things are happening in the background. I’m hoping by the beginning of the year to start selling online through this website, which is something I have never done. It requires a lot of changes, both to the site, and to […]
Portland Open Studios! It’s almost here! Every year that I participate it eats up my Oct. I always miss the apple tasting at the Portland Nursery (both weekends, even!) , I scramble to figure out how my kid is going to be entertained for a whole weekend while I am working, and I always replenish […]
Summer got away! Every year I try to keep it around enticing it with froofy drinks and such, but it always wants independence. It sure took up a lot of my work time this season, I realized it had been weeks since I posted. But that’s how summer should be, perhaps, full of memory making. […]
I love summer. Long, lazy days, warm evenings, lots of ice cold drinks. But, like all of those who work and are parents, I recognize and must work through the harder parts of summer…keeping your kiddo entertained and enriched, to at least a degree, during the time school is out. So while I love the […]
