Becky,it is beautiful,you did an outstanding job.I feel the same way so much harder than mosaics.You did your self proud tho!!!

WOW!! Such perfection! I don't even want to try doing all that leading, soldering & puttying stuff...I'll just stick to mosaics, but I sure can appreciate how much hard work it is and what a GREAT job you've done! Once they see this, they won't mind that they had to wait!

Oh Becky, I was just wondering about this and here it is !!! It IS perfect !!!
You sure did an outstanding job !!! Congratulations !!
I'll drink to that !!!!
Cheers !!!

OMG Becky! That is awesome! It's perfection!

Way to go!!! Good to see some actual stained glass going on here as we are mostly mosaicing!lol! Very nice! You gonna share a pic with us when it gets in it's new home?! Purty Pleez!!!

Thank you everyone for the wonderful, warm, encouraging comments about this project. Makes it all worthwhile!

We worked last night about three hours, puttied & polished. Tonight will try and finish by cleaning out all the little crevices & corners. The last step just amazed me! I had forgotten what the whiting process does....it just seemed to all come together-cleans & polishes the glass and lead.

Also visited with the owner of the restaurant by phone. Trying to convince them they need to have a light box installed behind to let light shine through to show the beauty of the glass. (See below-Tried to take a picture to show what that will look like). The bar is a bit dark and they just want to have hanging lights behind it. I am afraid it will show only "hot spots". I think a light box will truly show the beauty of the glass. Any helpful convincing comments I can use? And yes, when installed and finished, I will post a picture for all to see! And to celebrate with me that I managed to finished what I started!

Beautiful....Like how you did the PUB lettering....!!! Great job!

Wha Hoo! It's DONE, DONE, DONE! Congratulations on your wonderful professional work. It looks PERFECT and will obviously happily be the centerpiece for their business. I bet after years and years there it will be a collector's item for many many more. It's wonderful. On to new fun things!
