| Is it hard to put them together...as far as the wings being up and not flat? I have yet to do something that has pieces that are not flat. |

| Actually a friend had made me a support which I use for lamp shades, it has angled cones that you can moved in different slots..was absolutely perfect...will post a photo..
Same friend made me a lamp shade support holder for soldering seams, will include it as well...
Actually they were very/very easy to do..couldn't believe it..
I have a gemini glass cutter so what was interesting is I took the pattern, made 2 copies of each, in cutting with the saw I just took the negative pieces of each butterfly to make another..absolutely no waste..know it's difficult to understand my description, but if you look closely at the yellow arrange ones, you'll see the same glass but opposite each other...
Is my rambling making any sense???? probably not..lol |

| Thought I'd post a photo..the angular pieces are pegged and can be moved wider or more narrow
