Well, it's finally done :)
It was a very challenging project, and that's a bit of an understatement.
I've had millions of ideas buzzing in my head recently, none which would work with the glass, which only served to make matters worse. When my brain finally decided to give me a usable idea I quickly found Stainless Steel much harder to work with then I first imagined, and had to completely abandon my favorite idea because of time restraints. Silly brain.
Still, I am very happy with the way the glass and brooch turned out. I hope I have a chance at another glass next year, before this idea completely burns a hole in my head.
Visit ZaRUBa & ZaRUBa for more information. You can even go and buy my glass if you wish ;)
