Suncatcher

This project has 3 layers, for the front and back layers, I used 1/8 in birch which I painted. The center peice you can cut from birch, it is to cradle the acrylic to keep them from moving. I used 1/8 in acrylic for my stained glass pieces, when I assembled the pieces, I ran a ring of glue around the outer edges because I was having a time keeping the glue off the glass. If anyone has any better ideas, feel free to add input. Thank you

I LOVE it! That fret knot is the main motif in my coat of arms, so I’m definitely going to have to make that!

These aren’t really suncatchers, but they’re there closest I have to the style :slight_smile:

Some lovely suncatchers here!

This is the first stained glass project I ever made (in a class):

When I got a little better I made this one:

These are hanging on the wall in in my craft room, not in a window, though.

Haven’t done much since then!

@cynd11 I love hummingbirds … so, I like the first. I must say I find the frog exquisite. (Something no one plans to ever think about a frog, I’m sure).

What part of this is made on the glowforge? Is that a really silly question?
