I seem to get most crafty work done on Friday. My day off, so it makes sense. Last week I ran out of glass that I need for soldering, so I tried those large glass stones that you can find in floral section at the craft store. I loved the results because they are so beautifully imperfect, and they distort whatever image you put underneath it. It's almost like resin, which I've been a bit uncomfortable to mess with at the moment.
I made this Eiffel tour charm first, but realized because of the oval shape, my clamp wasn't holding it well while soldering. It was a hazard, and I stopped to go get a better clamp.
I used my husband's old comics. He's got a lot, so he let me use them. So these are getting soldered soon.
On a side note, last night I made a promise to my little girl that I will crochet a blanket for her. She has a little one that I made when she was a baby. She told me it doesn't cover her. And it really doesn't. I will be crocheting a while. I finished one square, and have no idea how many more I need. She's picked 10 colors from my stash and we started with purple.
