Sand Rose finished

The lovely sun catcher is finished and ready for collection. The first picture shows it with the copper foil applied and the second photo is the completed article. I have photographed in front of an obvious  background which gives an idea of how the light moves through it. It is beautiful in the sunlight and a perfect copy of the logo. 

The charity is the Sand Rose project which provides free accommodation to recently bereaved families, with the emphasis on young children. Based at Marazion in Cornwall, it has three cottages overlooking the beach and is a national charity. 

Projects like this one are really rewarding. Most stained glass work runs over several weeks and even months in some cases and you can run out of enthusiasm for the project. The Sand Rose only took two days, made entirely out of offcuts it looks fantastic, and best of all is for a really worthwhile cause. It reminds me nicely why I do this for free.
