    I love how you titled these! very clever!
    The "crashing star" is so Ice like......I love that look.
    The "rock Star" is so natural, and has such a peaceful feeling. Where in the world did you find the stars?
    Did you make them?

    Clever names Chickee! they are both very cool. What size are they and did you make them in a mold?

    I love those! Have been grabbing up a bag of little stones each time I visit the dollar store. And... glad to see another use for crash glass. They are VERY nice! Wondering too how big they are....?

    Thanks gals...You gotta be creative with some of these titles sometimes to get you all to look!!! (lol!!)

    I did make the stars. I used a cake pan my MIL gave me they are probably about 9 inches across. I have quite a few molds that my MIL has given me, a flower, a star and so on....

    The rock star was actually really soothing to make..the rocks just kinda of flow together and of course I used GEII to glue them on. My DH thought I should make one with black GEII but I didn't have any at the time.

    Glad my checker board reminded you, so you could share these with us. They are great looking!

    They are so nice, Chickee!
    Would you mind giving a little how-to? Concrete in mold... let set... pop out... right? Then, how long do you have to wait to glue on the stones / glass? Thanks for your help.

    fiddlekate- I sprayed the star cake pan with pam (wonderful release agent!!!) and mixed up up everyday concrete, tapped the sides to get the bubbles out and about 24 hours later turned it over and it came out!! I did wrap it in wet towels for a couple of days.

    I didn't know what I wanted to do with them so they have been sitting for about a month. I know the directions for the concrete say to let it cure for about a week. Covering it with wet towels or wet newspaper.

    hrsg-your chinese checkers definetly reminded me that I hadn't posted them so I thank you for inadvertantly reminding me!!!

    Glad you all like the names...

    Very creative Chickee! I love both of them. Finally have some crash glass & want to make something with mine.

    Holding out on us, huh??? How could you forget to post such neat projects?!!! LOVE them both. I read everything but these are neat names for your projects. I try to name my pieces too.
