End of the (Mica) Rainbow

Poured the resin on the Mica Rainbow window yesterday – here is the result! Having trouble getting a good photograph of it, but here you go!

Complete – Colored mica set in resin in a recycled window, approximately 30″w x 13.5″ tall

Closer to the end…

…of the mica rainbow flow mosaic. Added some purple and some “pearlescent” clear mica chips today.

Clear “semi-triangles” at each end / half way up and a clear “dot” accent in the upper left corner.

Filling out the rainbow

I’m adding a little bit more every day or two to the mica rainbow window. It is slowly taking shape!

Adding Color

A rainbow, like a community, just isn’t right without all it’s colors. 🙂 Still a ways to go on this one.

Today’s additions – green on top and blue on the bottom.

I actually started this last week, but forgot to take a picture. I decided to use up some of the mica I have left on a bigger project – a wavy rainbow window. I am starting in the middle with red and will spread out in waves from there.

Jolly Roger

A rainbow Jolly Roger to surprise a dear friend from high school!

Happy New Year!

Today I was able to take advantage of some unseasonably warm weather to finish a couple of projects I started before the holidays. This guy, while not my usual sort of project (also not the best photo), is hopefully going to be a nice surprise for a dear old friend. I still might pour another layer of resin over it, but will wait to decide. The skull and crossbones are made with traditional stained glass and the “rainbow” is made with sparkly mica chips. The clear backer glass is recycled from an old window and the underside edges of the clear glass are taped with yellow painters tape to catch the resin drips.

Snow & Rainbows II

Just a quick post to show off my first rainbow projects and today’s little gems. Methinks my new orange marker isn’t going to work out. Will need to find a paint pen…..

Prepping today’s little projects (suncatchers, ornaments, finish up coasters)

Mica rainbow heart suncatchers / ornaments – lots of sparkle!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Today is Thanksgiving, a great day to make some progress on small projects! Today was second layer of resin over the two heart / mica rainbow suncatchers / ornaments and also for the first mica rainbow coaster. I liked the first mica rainbow batch so much that I decided to make a round mica rainbow suncatcher / ornament and three more coasters to match the first. Next up will be the second layers on those. I also made a medium sized stained glass snowman suncatcher that will need another layer of resin and some decorations tomorrow.

I was able to pop out a few finished projects from yesterday’s batch, too!
