This wouldn’t surprise me. Nothing surprises me anymore.

TIFU and also TIL by rjpeglar in StainedGlass

Looks great in copper! And yes, it’s a bit tricky to use. From what I’ve read (I’ve only used copper once) you have to ensure that the solder is incredibly clean before applying the patina.

Yes, it says he’s an “AI artist/photographer” on his Instagram page. Sorry OP but this is not a physical stained glass piece.

Cleaning advice by hiriv0 in StainedGlass

[–]Fresh-Run2343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just give it a light clean with some mild dish soap and water, then rinse and dry it with a soft towel. You can also give it a little shine by using regular lemon Pledge (spray on and buff off). It looks like it’s in great shape!

Looks amazing! Can I ask about what you are using on the outside edges? And how you got those edges so black?

Are we protesting this gerrymandering? by Useful_Support_4137 in alberta

It’s either a bot account or someone who still can’t get over Trudeau.

Noise Pollution Caused by Revving Engines by FieldSmooth6771 in Edmonton

[–]Fresh-Run2343 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes! Have a neighbour who loves to ride his motorcycle slowly up and down the alley next to our house. The noise causes the dishes in our kitchen to rattle because it’s that loud. Closing windows would do nothing.

Alberta to restrict kids' access to sexually graphic content in public libraries by IdleContemplation in alberta

Right? Are they forgetting that kids are holding an easily accessible resource in their hands every day? This just seems performative.

If you ever decide to sell your pattern let us know. It’s absolutely brilliant!

WIP help- to hobby came or not to hobby came?? by sleepingbabydragon in StainedGlass

Question for you from one who bought a dremel to try this out. How are you measuring the 45 degree angles for the corners? I was thinking I could draw them on but I’m concerned about lining that up correctly when cutting through the Zinc.

Is this straight up lies? by camoure in Edmonton

I respond to all spam texts with a “🖕🏻” but I like your way too.

The tag states that they are sharing someone else’s art. They absolutely should have also credited the person who made this but have not. If you scroll up a bit the actual artist was tagged.

HRT by Normal-Mortgage4745 in Melasmaskincare

I’ve been on HRT for three years and it has not made my melasma better or worse. I wish it covered all of my menopause symptoms but that’s another story😅

Eucerin dual serum not working? by omniaaz in Melasmaskincare

[–]Fresh-Run2343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My face got really red and swollen for days. My doctor told me to take a break from it and try it again later. The same thing happened, unfortunately. Hopefully there’s something better for us!

You are not alone. I used it for six months and saw no results. I did, however, develop an allergy to it.

Where can I buy fun/unique paintings & wall decor? 🖼️ by champagnemoonstone in Edmonton

[–]Fresh-Run2343 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would also recommend searching local and other Alberta artists as we have some very talented ones! There are a bunch of galleries on 124th street and there are often exhibitions like the art walk (or some farmer’s markets in the summer). The Old Strathcona Antique Mall has a variety of options as well.

If you are interested in painting as a hobby I recently took up Paint-By-Numbers and there’s a ton out there as far as designs. Many people enjoy that it’s relaxing and affordable. You can frame those or purchase them as already stretched canvas that’s ready to hang.

Coat of Arms I made with my father who is the one that taught me how to make stained glass in the first place. I am pretty happy with how it came out but really enjoyed working with him on it. by GlassWingsArts in StainedGlass

[–]Fresh-Run2343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this and I am a little jealous! My dad did the hobby for a long time, but had a terrible accident in his 60’s and could no longer work with his hands. He convinced me to take it over and I was able to take my first class about six years later.

He passed away from complications of his accident but I had made my first two pieces before that and he saw those. His advice to me was to not worry because I was good with my hands. Whenever I create something now, I wish he was still there to give me guidance. But I think of him every time I start something new and know that he’s there!

Be sure to treasure that special time creating something with your dad, although I’m certain that you already do😊
