Think Spring Thoughts

Inspiration

While it’s true that the groundhog predicted 6 more weeks of winter and most of the country is blanketed in snow, you can cheer up knowing that spring is right around the corner. When you find yourself trapped indoors due to the freezing temperatures and piles of snow, you can warm up with toasty thoughts of the upcoming spring season.

 

Let those spring thoughts fuel your creativity and passion for art glass. There’s no limit to what you can create with fused glass, stained glass, mosaics, and glass jewelry. Let the world of spring be your inspiration.

 

Spring is when the land wakes up again, with blooming flowers and trees that grow back their leaves and show their first signs of fruit. Spring is when animals come out from the hollows and explore the world anew. It’s a tremendous time of rebirth from the ground up.

 

Don’t just sit and stare out the windows into the snow wishing for spring to come. While you wait, keep busy by honing in on your craft. Snowed in? Hunker down in your studio to create your best pieces yet. From birds to butterflies, embrace the essence of spring and capture it in your work.

 

If you need even more inspiration, visit the artist gallery to see what other glass artists like you have created. You can also find free patterns and guides that will set you in the right direction, like this one for a large hummingbird bevel or this one for a flower fan lamp.

 

Be creative and be inspired by spring. If that doesn’t get you up and crafting, Delphi’s 26th Annual Art Glass Festival is just around the corner.
