A Chickeemomma Special

19 years ago

I may not have small balls but I have a mini mosaic done at night!! 6x7inch glass on glass, A nighttime quickie!

I was inspired to buy this wrought iron hanger cuz it reminded me of a Squirrelly creation a while back, on her gallery pics, and then as I was hauling it out, I decided to do a "Chickee" to it!

    Yep - she's on some kind of new vitamin! CALAM, that's very pretty. Looks like YOU, though. Suppose we can't change our styles, no matter how we like to imitate the work of the people we admire. I cut so many pieces of glass yesterday that I was again seeing shapes to cut in the faces I saw on t.v. last night. I'm sick, I tell you, SICK.

    So...Calam...you don't have small balls? I guess (and hope) I missed something. I've been pretty busy this last week. However, I love it. And what a great way to display your creativity and it be ALL about the mosaic. Instead of, "That's a bowling ball? And you glued glass all over it! Pretty!" Now it's, "Look at those flowers and details! Incredible!" Does that make sense? (BTW, I love it)

    Yup, those holes were the hardest, longest yet to drill, as they needed to be a 1/4 inch in size. Makes me feel good to use my tools(bits)! So no projects at the moment...why do I start like 2 or 3...or 4 at once?!!! Anyways, when I showed my DH this one he pipes up with: What about that Peacock??? Shouldn't you get it outta the way? Well, outta the mouths of babes...SHEESH!!!
    THAT PEACOCK IS MY NEMESIS!!!! Okay...I'm calming down now.... God Bless that Lil Side o beef of mine!!! Bless his lil ol'heart!!!! nuf said...

    Jane..that peacock is your treasure...I know it has been taking forever but when it is done, it will be the crowning jewel on your tiara of mosaics...don't rush it, it will get finished when it gets finished. If you force yourself to do it..you will finish it badly!!! We are all so in awe of that..y mouth still drops open when you post pictures of it...maybe you should post your progress thus far for those newbies we have here that haven't had the privilege of seeing it..

    Beautiful, Beautiful, BEAUTIFUL!! It really is. And such a nice display.

    P.S. Did someone say eacock-pay?!?

    "A nighttime quickie"---doesn't quite have the meaning it used to in our 20's -huh?

    Beautiful piece. Love the colors and it looks great with the little birdie.

    Not that I would EVER mention your peacock, but I would just put that on the list as a winter project ;-)
