Stained glass windchime

Just finished for Richland Art Show in July. Real horseshoe, hand cut pieces of stained glass each wire wrapped, then strung together with copper wire.


Painting with Glass

The original glass was yellow - thought it was suppose to strike a streaky green. SURPRISE!!! Orange red and design was lost...so added some white highlights and some bright greens and wa-la ... Really like the way it came out.
