Driftwood mosaic #2

 Hallo,
   Another driftwood piece for you today - I love how the glass and beads turned out  but I wasnt as happy with the resisn on this one - it turned the wood alot darker and I liked it as it was before the resin. I didn't think it would be that dark.
  It still looks cool though.
                                                                                                    All for today - off to the studio to play.
                                                                                                            Take Care

Driftwood mosaic #1

 Hallo,
   Finally getting around to posting this - finished it off about a month ago.
   I was sposed to be on vacation, flying to see my Niece get married this weekend, but covid had other ideas. The wedding was drastically reduced to parents and wedding party only but I decided to go up anyhow and visit with another niece and then drive a couple hours to my brothers place in wyoming and hang out with them and my Mom was going to go to his place too......well Mom decided not to travel and then my other niece didnt feel all that comfy with me coming either - and I had been worrying and debating anyhow so I just cancelled my trip.....kinda bummed but better to be safe......
     While I was playing with a glass mosaic piece last month, I picked up a couple pieces of drift wood to see what I could do with them. I added glass pieces, beads and seashells to this one and then a coat of resin.
     I am happy with it - and will show you the other one tomorrow. I need to find some more driftwood now.
   Take Care and stay safe ya'll

Purple and turquoise rug

 Hallo,
   I finished off this rug about a week ago and will have to get it mailed out to one of my nieces soon.
  It is made with double knit fabrics. Pretty simple design but I liked the colors.
   All for now - Take Care

Glass mosiac lantern

 Hallo,
   Did a large lantern for my daughter and her hubby for their wedding anniversary. It is pretty much the same as my first lantern except a bigger one, but I also cut the glass into smaller pieces for this one as I like the smaller pieces  - I can get a more detailed look I think.
  The first 2 pics are regular and the last 2 are with some battery operated lights tuned on inside. Looks really good lit up!!!
   All for today - Take Care

Birdcage succulents

Hallo,
   I started this project back in Febr. when I ordered the succulents to put in them. BUT, thanks to Covid, I only got my succulents from the plant company a couple weeks ago and am just now getting around to posting the pictures for you to see.
  I spray painted 3 birdcages and then planted them with small succulents. I have tried hanging plants in this spot for years but they never last due to too much sun and not enough water, so I thought I would try this.
  Not quite how the pinterest projects other have done but I like how they turned out.
   All for today - Take Care

C130 - stained glass mosaic - finished.

Finished piecing, laying down

 Hallo,
    It has been awhile but I have finally finished off this stained glass mosaic of a C130 in Coast Guard colors.
  The first picture today is before resin when I finished piecing it all. About 66 total hours of work into this piece!!!
  The second picture is after resin and standing up with the light shining through it. I love how it turned out!!!!
  The last 2 pics are closeups - I used a bit of translucent blue resin dye for the 'water' on the 'beach' and a small amount of white to make a few white caps in the water. I went lite on both because I hadn't worked with those before.....
   Not too much new here - still working and not doing too much else, yard work and playing in the studio. The return to normal has begun and hopefully will continue without a covid resurgence ....
We went out to eat for lunch on Mothers Day for the first time in forever - was nice to be 'out'!!!
   All for today - Take Care Everyone!!!
