stained glass art

Recently bought a kaleidoscope kit to learn how to make them. I think they are both fun and beautiful!

So Labor Day weekend I set off to create my very first kaleidoscope… it could do with some improvements. Through the week I searched for the parts to make another to see if I could make it a bit better than my first … whew.. I think I have this down now!

Here’s my first kaleidoscope…. it looks solid and for the most part it is.. my color wheel on the front is just a bit wobbly .. which I can fix… just haven’t yet 🙂

The color wheels on this first one are the simpler 6 piece wheels…

Here is my second one … I doesn’t have any feet on it yet .. I may end up making a wood stand for it instead. The color wheels on this one are 12 piece wheels… so that’s 24 tiny little pieces of glass! Nothing wobbles on this one! Plus I added a bit of extra detail on the top of this one!

Here are some pics of what they look like on the inside 🙂

The first 3 photos are the effects using the 6 piece color wheels:

My special project! 🙂

I thought how cool it would be to make life sized stained glass guitars and add real guitar parts to them.. and … well.. so I began designing, cutting, grinding and assembling a few guitars.

Below are some photos of guitars still in progress as well as a few finished products.

As I mentioned before these are all life sized with real guitar parts added to give them that extra cool factor!

I have an acoustic guitar in progress at the moment … photos to follow soon as well as a couple of custom designs of my own and an american flag electric model.

These guitars are for display only .. sorry folks but these can’t be played .. just looked at and admired 🙂
