Don’t you just love the colors in this glass pendant? I will tell you my secret of how I got the colors that way — this is how I bought the dichroic glass!! It comes in stripes like this, so it is so much fun to design various glass pendants. I can cut the glass so the dark blue is on the top and have silver beneath it. I can also cut a longer piece to get a couple of the stripes of the blue and silver dichroic glass.
I was just visiting my mom in Minneapolis (I live in Oregon) and I thought she would like these colors in a glass pendant. She decided that she liked it and wanted to get it. I love giving my glass pendants to family. I know they will enjoy wearing them.

HI there Christine!!
I really like the piece you made for your Mom!! I, too, am like you. I only really do the hobby for small tokens for my family members. It is really a great feeling to have somebody appreciate it!!
Anyways, could you please tell me where in Minneapolis that you found this glass?? I will be travelling there in about 2 weeks.
Many thanks!

Hi Marlene,
I bought the dichroic glass online from http://www.artisandichroic.com. This website is the only place I have seen this particular dichroic pattern, so far.
I also sell my glass on my website: http://www.mastersglassart.com.
Thanks for the comments about this glass pendant. I am going to be making her some earrings to match next.

Hi boulderglassmonkey,
Thanks so much for the compliment!
I finished the earrings that match the pendant and gave them to her a few months ago.
I hope she is enjoying the pendant and earrings
