I never knew about Matt’s dancing around the globe until I saw this video (from a link clicked on Towleroad). This is another one for the “I Wish I’d Thought Of That” category. What a totally cool [...]

I want to be sure you see these stained glass suncatchers made in rainbow colors. I loved making them a couple of weeks ago. It was an experiment that turned out very well, and I am delighted with them. The angels provided another happy moment. There will be more angels in the days [...]

Here are the candle vases I’ve made during this recent flurry of glass work. They’re all made with bevels, copper foil and solder.

In the last post, you saw photos of groups of stained glass items I made this week. All of these designs are ones I created this week. (All except the blue star. The star is not my design. All the rest are my designs.)

So, after not trying to work with glass since last summer, I’m attempting to redeem this ‘lost’ time by working diligently on glass. I’ve spent hours and hours sitting at a table outside my house soldering pieces of glass together. Here are a [...]

This isn’t as funny to me as the Chocolate Easter Bunny Chat or the Government Warning (Don’t Swallow Chewing Gum!), but it’s worth a look. It might even make you want to learn how to use your digital photo editing program to see what alterations you can make in the family photos. Actually, [...]
