Winter Reveal

Here are some snapshots of my latest batch of winter themed pieces / suncatchers / ornaments. This week’s beach-themed ornaments are still a work in progress; hopefully I will be able to finish them over the weekend.

Winter Scene

I’m still busier than usual at work, so my weekends are my best time for crafting. Today I finished cutting out and gluing the glass for a little winter scene and a small snowman panel (not pictured), as well as laid out the “beach” for some starfish and sand dollar ornaments.

Laying out the pieces / gluing in place.
Everything glued – waiting for the glue to dry.
Gluing the sand for the “beach” on some ornaments.

Of course, I had to cut the backer glass and sand the edges for all of these before decorating could begin. Hopefully the sand will stick well and I won’t have to add another layer before I can pour the resin, but I have a feeling I’ll need a bit more sand once the glue cures. I plan to make these into mini starfish & sand dollar ornaments / suncatchers.
