My latest gog

18 years ago

Hi guys,

Its been a while but im still doing gog. Im hooked! I cant bring myself to go back to traditional glass as i find it has too many rules and your creativity cant just "flow"

I hope you like it, its in my kitchen window. Sorry the pics arent the best.

    That is absolutely gorgeous! I love the color combination - it's so soothing and peaceful! Are those glass beads? Beautimous!

    hi icheer,

    thanks for your nice comments. Yes the small round things in the middle are glass beads...yet another good thing about gog, you can incorporate anything made of glass!!!

    that's right onto the kitchen window?
    if you can lift out one side of the window, how did you get the left side of the window out?
    I have the same curved wood, above the window in my kitchen.

    it's absolutely beautiful...how'd you do it?...lol
    just gotta know.

    Howdy Vintage!
    Thats a might nice window ya got there!
    I really like the glass beads. They add a nice interest. Oh and the bits of green glass, just enough to break up all the blue. Ya got it goin' on!
    So, do you mostly do gog? I have yet to attempt one, but after doing copperfoil panels, I'm itchin' to try it!

    I look forward to seeing more from you!

    That is just eyeboggling beautiful! I can imagine the sun shining through it and different colors dancing on your walls and floor! Love it!

    That is absolutely gorgeous!!! Love the colors and combinations of shapes and materials. It "might" even make kitchen work more pleasurable for me; I would certainly go in there more if I had that to look at.
    P.S. Hooked is a word we can all identify with.

    Wow! Very nice.

    I love the colors. It would be so nice to wake up, go in to make coffee and see that window. What a nice way to start the morning. I'm working towards starting a GOG, just have to find some first. Really great job.

    That is so pretty!! Great to see you back, and with such eye candy! Do I understand correctly....that is the actual window?? Did you stand over the sink while you did it or is there a way to remove and replace it easily?? What a treat that must be for you every day!

    Wowsa! This is beautiful! I'd love to have a sunny spot to put something like this, but alas, the only good spot would be the oval-etched (read: expensive "option" when we built the house) front door that is in full Southern exposure. I'd LOVE to gog something like that.

    Nice work!!!

  • 18 years ago

    That is just beautiful!!
    Love it!
    (why did the words "holy dog snot" run through my head when I first saw this!):)

    There is so much inspiration on this site!!!

    Very gorgeous, like someone said it is very peaceful. I just love it. Does your windows still open? It looks to be two windows. I really love the colors..I was thinking about doing our bedroom window with something like that, not your design but a gog. As usual, another on my to do list!!!! Please tell us how you did it. Im really curious about the windows if they still open which is a must for me!!

  • 18 years ago

    Renee, absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!! I love the colors and design.

  • 18 years ago

    Renee, your window is awesome. I sure wouldn't mind looking at that every day in my kitchen!

  • 18 years ago

    Thanks guys for all of your encouraging comments.
    The gog is done on a very large picture frame that just happened to fit perfectly on the inside of the sill of my kitchen window. I can take it out anytime but I dont have to because I can still open the actual aluminium window behind it. You can see the shadow of the window in the middle of the second pic. It's my largest GOG mosaic yet, being approx. 1 metre wide by about 80cm high. It was fun but took ages! I used window silicone with uv resistance because i want it to last a long time. It didn't turn out quite the way I imagined.....but thats the beauty of gog and what keeps me hooked the most, is your only limited by your imagination!

    Thanks again,
    Will post more soon!
