Title: Blue Church Stained Glass Point
Post by: PrimitiveTim on June 08, 2018, 07:59:10 pm
My great grandmother gave me a piece of stained glass from her church when they redid the stain glass window.  It was basically a big slab and I figured it was time to take the risk of making it into something other than a chunk of glass.  So I got out my rocks and antler beat out this decorative piece.  I went conservative on the design because I have a tendency to take the percussion a little to far and break things in half. Anyway, I'm gonna give it to my grandmother.

Real nice!  She will appreciate it.  A copper wire wrap hanger will make it a sun catcher for her window!

That's a nice looking point I stopped stopped at a stained glass store to see if they had any thing worth while but all they had was 1/8 in thick material nothing thicker.
