Jewelry Box in Stained Glass

My first jewelry boxes were more "box" than "jewelry" though each has its own theme and they turned out nice; I made a leap with my last two jewelry boxes. I designed a_heart_inside_a_heart. I opted to not patina (color) the solder as I think the silver adds to the beauty (and since all my work is lead-free it is safe too).

Some day I'll figure out how to make money with this hobby, but for now I'm having a great time coming up with new ideas. My next project will be to make a drawer in the bottom of a jewelry box.

Let me know what you think...

Beautiful design, congratulations. Simplicity is the base of art, I mean. Greetings from Madrid

Hi
I stumbled across your blog on LDS BLOGS. I thought you might be interested in a site my wife and I just built called MormonsMadeSimple.com, which uses simple, explanatory videos to explain the Mormon faith. Feel free to feature any of these videos on your blog, or just share them with non-member friends. We're hoping these videos will be missionary tools to help members share their beliefs. Anyway, sorry to spam your comments section. I couldn't find any contact information for you on your blog.
