Wall Plaques

I have had my :glowforge: for a little over a month now. Up until recently I have been making existing free patterns or purchased commercial ones.
This is the first project I created myself in Inkscape. My wife seen a wall plaque on a TV show made from metal that had initials and a name in the middle. She asked me if I could do something like that on the glowforge. Of course I told her I could:wink:. Here is the finished product. Made from thick :proofgrade: walnut plywood and mirror acrylic from Inventables:

As an added bonus, I was able to use the left overs of the project and created another plaque:

Fantastic first project! Bet she loved it! :grinning:

Yay! Way to win over the wife, if she wasn’t already. It came out great!

It looks great and is always nice when you end up with a twofer.

I can only see the second one. It makes me think the first is worth seeing, too!
