Those are so cute. I have never made them though. I did have some glass blades from a touch lamp I took apart. Gave them to my neighbor to make the dragon flies with. I do not think she ever did so though.

When you do construct your dragonflies you could add glass beads or small glass cabinet pulls (depending on the scale) for eyes.

C. L. Sleger, that's a good idea. I'll have to watch for some drawer pulls or maybe the right color glass "globs" (flat marbles that are used in vases).

cool idea, I have the legs AND the fan blades out in my garage!

steiconi, what do you have for the legs? I used to see sets of ceiling fan blades for sale at the local Restore but the last few times I went, they don't seem to sell them anymore. I didn't ask if they throw them away now. The weather here is still cool and dreary. Too cold to plant things and not inspiring to work on things for the garden.

luvs2click, that's the most life-like one I've seen yet. Were the wings made from fan blades or did you use something else?

Yes fan blades, but I cut them with scroll saw.

luvs2click, you certainly picked a great "body" for your dragonfly. The table legs I have don't have a great head like that. I bought a wooden ball to screw in as the head but now I have no idea where my husband hid it. *sighs* Really love your stuff!
