I had it finished but then decided that it wasn't wide enough so took it apart at one of seams and added another panel. Trust me; never do that! what alot of trouble. I'll now always to a cardboard mach-up first in order to size the project to the room. I'm really enjoying seeing everyone's beautiful projects.

Fixing or changing something sure takes longer than doing it the first time! I had to replace a piece that got broken in a window I made and it was not something I want to do again if I can avoid it. Gourd (Zone 4b) February 24, 2009 08:33 PM Post #6185657 That is beautiful, it came out great, I too had to make repairs, and now I have to make two more repairs on two panels.. I guess if we can make them we should be able to fix em... but I'm not looking forward to it. venu209 Jersey Shore, NJ (Zone 7a) February 24, 2009 10:54 PM Post #6186393 Gorgeous!

Still have that big sheet of glass I got for my birthday about 3 years ago..hate to cut it..lol... I know Sac, no more lamps until I finish that window panel... jcoats123 Payson, AZ (Zone 7a) March 03, 2009 12:34 AM Post #6214555 NICE-NICE-NICE!!!
