Sunflower’s

Anyone that’s known me for at least 5 months will know that I am trying to teach myself how to do stained glass. Tiffany stained glass, not the other one. I have no interest in the other one just yet. Although Tim does. That doesn’t matter because he’s changed from wanting to make things from stained glass to wanting to make model aeroplanes. How that shift happened…I don’t know. Maybe Jaxon’s room started the madness. Oh wait, I haven’t shared Jaxon’s room with you yet…keep an eye out and I’ll post picks!

Anyway, I lost all motivation for the stained glass when I finally completed the mirror I was making for Tim’s Mum Judy. (Below: Judy’s Cat Mirror)

I had no idea what I wanted to do and no real desire to just mess around. I HAD to be doing something constructive, not just making candle holder’s. So I sat here searching the net and finally found what I wanted to do.

And here is the very beginning of my new project. YOU get to watch as it grows!
This is the picture I have based my project on.

And this is my design from that.

And then from that little drawing Tim put it through a resizing program that made it THIS big!!!!

When I first got the idea to do this as a mirror the main thing was that I didn’t want it to be as big as Tim’s Mum’s mirror. So we looked at where we were going to put it once it was done and measured how big we wanted it. WELL!! It is MUCH bigger than Judy’s mirror! (60 cm W X 80 cm L) But I’ll do it anyway!

Stay tuned for more Sunflower updates as I work my magic!
