Of course, I forgot to grab video of adding the mirrors, eye pieces, drilling the color disks and all the other fun finishing details. But, wow! I love it!

Thanks for following along

I added the brass rod and soldered it in. Then, I had to take it out. I worried I'd have to remake everything, but it was all fine.

I'm having so much fun on this project. Everything is going together nicely with no major hiccups, knock on wood! I'll need to fine-tune some of those little details in the final version.

I've been holding off on this project for so long and not for any real reason.

I think this new stained glass project idea is going to be fun and awesome.

Apples, limes, red tops on the mushrooms & cherries are made from cathedral glass - single color transparent glass. The morels and peaches are made from opalume glass - opaque glass. thomascritchlowartglass.com

Soldering feels like "almost done." It's hard but not impossible to fix mistakes at this point. Take a deep breath and just start! What are you starting today?

Is fun fruit Friday a thing? Bright red cherries, twisted wire stems, and deep green leaves look great in any sunny kitchen or bathroom window. Which reminds me.... I need to clean mine! Off I go!

I've had some questions about the stability of my plant stakes. I gave them a good shake, and they are still awesome!

I keep moving these little morel mushroom plant stakes around! They look great in any indoor planter. I have them in my office space tucked in the cactus my kiddo left behind a few years ago.

I broke a leaf today and was cranky for a while. But, look! Here are my stained glass morel plant pals! Plant buddies? Pot pals? Idk what to call them, but they're cute!

Cutting out the pieces for my next project. I'll rough cut these leaves and cut the individual sections for each once I have all the pieces cut.

Original to my 1904 home, the 4 sides are the same. It hangs over the dining room table... from a carved wood chain!

I just finished a few of these... 12 hand cut pieces of art glass, foiled and soldered, edged in came. Cool iridescent blues and soft wispy purples... love it!
