Glass Fusing Fundamentals | Lesson 5: Adding Accessory Glass

Lesson 5 of this instructional course introduces frit, stringers, noodles, and rods, shows techniques for incorporating these accessory glasses into projects, demonstrates how to work safely with each one, and explores the different aesthetics they can produce. I collaborated with ‪@oceanside-glass‬ to create this series as a comprehensive introductory course to glass fusing. As an experienced artisan of the craft, I've structured it to include everything I wish I knew when I first started fusing, as well as knowledge it took me years to learn, with the goal of providing a free, easy-to-follow method of becoming skilled in this unique art form.
