| I started this back in Jan. and then sort of "walked away" for a few months and finished it up this past weekend. The pattern had a butterfly in the drawing, but I came across a nice piece of glass that made great wings but I didn't want to cut into bits, so I cut the wings and applied them to the finished piece.

| OMG I just love it...was given a large sheet of molted glass by friends 2 years ago Christmas...haven't cut into it as I love the design within, actually each time you look at it you can see something different, wolves, mountains,starbursts..but if you put it in a frame and in the window it loses it's designs so there behind a cupboard is that $125.00 piece of glass...any ideas |

| Nancy, thank you!
Betty since it's a stand alone piece, and you haven't found the right project for it ; howabout just going to Walmart and getting a frame, and hanging it until the right inspiration comes along. |
