I really like the potato stone one. Wish I was over there to buy one!

 

Good job you'm not from Bristol, they call em Bristol Diamonds there, on account of no one in Bristol ever been rich enough to see a Diamond.

But they have seen Potatoes

 

If buyers are going to shineyland you might even be able to deliver them, cool!

Those are so pretty and have such clean lines....


first zone envy, now shopping envy....

 

Ooooo I love this window, I'd also like the building to go with it.

 

Nearly done on the sunflower, just need some better yellow

 

What an interesting thread, great skills Zigs.

 

When you're grozing a piece of glass splinters come off everywhere, it's very important to wear eye protection and resist the temptation to brush fragments off your hands.

Just blow the fragments off or you'll drive them into your skin.

 

Been trapping an agate today

Cut out the shape as close as you can, then offer it up to mark it out again allowing for the width of the lead cames.

 

He won't get out of that in a hurry

 

Been doing a bit of tweaking today, put glazing bars to support the window, it was buckling in the sun

Soldered some copper wire to the cames to twist around the bars



And then put copper onto the frame

 

Remember those wildflowers I was pressing?
