No grout or copper tape was harmed in the making of this product! It looked so "raw" at first, I'm getting used to it a little now. I discovered I have so much pretty brown glass and I almost never use brown. Hardest part was cleaning the silicone off and I'm standing way back to brush my teeth now. Sort of didn't think how hard it was going to be to clean in some of those little spaces! On well, I don't even clean my big mirrors as well as I should... While I was in the petal cutting mode, I made this for a instructor in a class I'm taking. It's actually small, 3" high so it looks more delicate than it does in the picture. Do you think the buttons make it tacky? I can still take them off. Have to do a final cleanup anyway since the camera showed some smudges I didn't see. I may make some more of these for gifts.

This is just lovely. I did the same thing on a broken mirror I got on sale at HobLob, but I didn't have a tumbler at the time, so my edges aren't as smooth as yours look. Did you grind or tumble? Very pretty indeed. Wait, I looked again, and doubt you could get the brown in the small tumbler, so you must've used a grinder. I like your few little green leaves - budding - new growth.

Thank you all for your nice compliments. It still kind of startles me when I stumble into the bathroom in the a.m. I have to grind; I don't cut well enough to tumble. I have an eye on a vase/urn/container design that's almost all squares. Determined to use my Morton and then only tumble if needed, not grind.
