finish each day and be done with it. you have done what you could. some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. tomorrow is a new day. you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Every fused glass artist knows – breakage happens. If you mix incompatible glass – if you cool too quickly - you can get stress fractures and cracks. It can be very disappointing - especially if you’ve already put time & effort into the piece – but it is not the end.
Glass gives you seceond chances – you can recycle it and try again – as often as you dare. It is a forgiving medium (karma’s way of making up for the cuts and burns fusers deal with?)
Don’t cry over broken glass – it’s just an opportunity to recycle it & start fresh!
