First things first, I gather my glass rods in all sorts of colors. I always have a general idea of what I want the turtle to look like—maybe a bright green shell or a cool blue body. Then, I fire up the torch. The flame gets super hot, and that’s where the magic happens. More info: Etsy Once the shell’s done, I add the little head, legs, and tail. Each piece is carefully melted and shaped, then stuck onto the body. I love giving each turtle a different look by playing around with the colors and shapes. After the turtle is fully formed, I give it a quick spin in the flame to smooth out any rough spots. Then, I let it cool down slowly. Once it’s cool, the turtle is ready to join its colorful little friends! And that’s it! Making these glass turtle figurines has been a blast, and each one is a tiny work of art that I’m proud to create. Follow Bored Panda on Google News! Follow us on Flipboard.com/@boredpanda!
