I have been working on a stained glass lamp shade. I should finish up with it next week. Here are some pictures of my project...
These are pictures of the panels. There are six panels in all, three are shown below. Each panel took three hours for me to put together.
I have a couple more panels to put the finishing touches on and I also have to patina it (which turns the silver soldering black). Below are two pictures of the almost completed project. One without light...
And one with light....
I like how it changes color with the light.
This is the last project for the summer. We will start up again in the fall probably September. It's been fun.

Please contact me if you are interested in a DVD of the slideshow shown at Sam's funeral. His family has made it available and asked me to help spread the word.
