It's really beautiful Scoot! You did a great job. I can tell the little gnome family loves it too :) .. cute
Funny that pink was never one of my favorite colors til I got interested in working with glass. Now it is one of the colors my eye is drawn to the most.

Hi Scooter...Really pretty, I love the pink. Where do you find pink grout? I have thought about making candle holders for the yard, that is is, just thought about it. LOL

Everyone is making me want to get to work on some of my glass projects.

My brug cuttings are still doing great. :~))

First of all Thank you all for da comps . Luv the whole bunch of ya.

2nd, I didn't have any grout in the house so I used thin set mortar.

picabo, Can't wait to see 'our ' brugs blooming in your yard hahahahaha

I color grout with acrylic hobby paints, add paint first so you don't make it runny.


( new camera ) sorry it is out of focus because there are too many switches and buttons , lol

Thanks Cindy.

That is actually a 3 shelf unit .

It's kinda neat because it's sturdy and folds flat but it weighs a ton !

I never saw one like it before and had to have it.

Oh, a shelf unit, I see it now. It is really pretty. I just love it.
I showed my DH your picture and he asked how you made that candle light with bubble wrap. lol Once I told him it was the half marbles and pink grout, he could see it was, and loved it. Must be something in our water, we both look at your picture and see the wrong thing. lol
