Another Key Rack

I have a friend who seems to like the things I make and now has several of my works of art(!) around her home.

She asked me to make a key hook rack to go in her porch and there wasn't a lot of space to make a horizontal one so I made a long thin one to hang vertically.  I used paint mixed with glitter and covered it with glass tiles, beads, bits of wood, shells and other bits and bobs.

I delivered it today and was very pleased that she really liked it.

Copperfoiling

I love working with glass in my mosaics and I did a course when I lived in Hove to learn several different methods of using it but that was ages ago and I wanted a refresher on copper foiling.  I know a lady who lives nearby who opens her house during the Adur Festival and shows really lovely stained glass work.  She said she'd be happy to give me some lessons, so I went three times to her little workshop in the garden right on the river and made this light catcher.  You have to be quite precise with cutting so that the pieces
will fit properly but I really enjoyed putting the copper foil round the edge of each piece and soldering it all together.  The finished light catcher goes well in my kitchen window.
