Day 23

First panel of the kitchen backsplash. The scenes are the views out our windows depicting the seasons and recent history of the land around us. This is early spring and the first of the farmers is clearing and working the land. The church was built in 1875 and is now our home.

A goofy stocking stuffer for my adult son who WFH. Good for when you want to throw an F bomb during a crappy zoom call or distract an annoying canine co-worker.

Day 12

Another Christmas decoration for my sister when she moved in to her . I sent it to her in pieces and didn't tell her what it all was. (I also sent her a photo with each of the disks under different sized coffee mugs as a misleading bit of entertainment. 😇)

Link to yesterday's gift:
https://mastodon.sdf.org/@KarenDorman/111564324916709919

A six inch high crocheted Christmas tree sitting on a coffee table. It has strings of beads and sequins draped around it and there's a small star at the top. The tree has a slice of tree trunk for its base and is made from alternating light and dark green crocheted disks in descending sizes.

Day 9
copper, stained glass


A stained glass sculpture of a water lily plant with three orange and amber flowers each atop a copper stem and three large green lily pads branching off the main stem. Each flower and lily pad holds a small votive candle which is burning brightly in the dark. The only light illuminating the sculpture is from the six candles.

Day 4

"WheelieGig"
Bicycle wheel, stained glass, metal spoons


A stained glass sculpture made from a bicycle wheel and inverted on a fence post. The stained glass is in primary colours and twisted spoons around the perimeter catch the wind to make it spin. When spinning, the coloured glass forms a trefoil or trillium shape. In the background are green farmers fields and bright blue sky speckled with small wispy clouds.
