Fused Glass Project - Making a Spooky Halloween Candle Holder Using the Freeze and Fuse Method
This candle holder took a long time to make but it was a lot of fun. I used a method call "freeze and fuse" to create the 3D elements such as the tombstones, pumpkin, owl, and bats. I realize that this video is a little late to be able to make the project for Halloween but the elements could be changed up for any holiday or design.
All the glass I use is Bullseye 90 COE.

I forgot to add the firing schedules in the video so I've attached them here:
