Happy Valentine's Day! Appropriately, I started working on the first heart I'll be donating to Florida. I'm very messy with thinset and get frustrated because of that, so it's taking me a little time to get through it. However, I'm positive once it's entirely filled in, I'll be very happy with it.
Here's the progress photos from the beginning to where I left off yesterday afternoon.
 |
| Because I have trouble cutting a straight line freehand, I use a white tealight candle to draw the lines before cutting. |
 |
| The wax is easy to clean up and off of the glass and the scored lines are much straighter. |
 |
| Hearts and flowers. |
 |
| Mesh is cut to fit and taped down over a piece of plastic and the drawing. |
 |
| Placement of the glass gems was done first. |
 |
| The flowers start to form. |
 |
| Messy thinset but once completely filled in, I'm hoping I can clean it up a bit. |
Next Wednesday I'll share the progress and hopefully it will be finished!
