I'm dying to do a shower door!!! I'm going to scrounge a mirror door and make it for outside in the garden....ahhhh, imagine when the sun hits it!!! ZOWIEEEE!!!! I was going to do some simple flowers and maybe a path scene on it. Project # 839!!!! But hopefully I'll get there!!! Just depends on when I get that mirror!

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I've been browsing the forum for a few days and am getting ideas and inspiration for the projects I want to do. Now I need time to get them done! It will be a lot of fun though and I hope not too difficult. It is amazing what can be done with glass and grout!

Oh man, I left the house yesterday and went straight to my fav recycle depot, they get a lot of drop offs of windows,doors and well, just EVERYTHING!!! But I didn't see a shower door! I was seeing them allllll summer and now that I want one, they're gone! oh well, part of the whole fun is ..."The Hunt"!!!
