I decided to try something new with my previous panel piece and dyed the solder lines black.
I had been unsure about it for a long time, but the black finish really brought the whole piece together, and I’m so glad I finally went for it.
Here is the finished piece.

The day I will give it to my friend is still a little while away, but I’m already looking forward to it so much.
And here is another piece.
I made this one for my mother, as I’ll be visiting my hometown at the end of the year for the first time in a while.
I asked her to choose her favorite colors, and based on those, I combined the glass pieces to create a single panel.
If you place a small seasonal ornament beneath it, the whole piece takes on an even richer expression.
My hope is that she can enjoy the colors and a sense of the seasons all year round, whether she displays it in the entryway or the living room.
