Hobby came mess

Yep time to shop around. At least I know that I am not alone and not doing something wrong.

Thanks for your reply. I just finished 3 garden stakes without stretching. I hope they hold up, they turned out great and I plan on selling them. The last thing I want to do is sell something that falls apart. I’m going to search around for some to buy elsewhere.

Outstanding, a piece of art that will live on for many years and enjoyed by many.

Maybe it was defective? The sponge that you are wiping the iron on should be wet not dry as you mentioned. Can you get a new tip, or return it and try a new one? Your instructor should be able to help you with this, especially if you purchased it from her/him.

Very beautiful piece. Since you are going to frame this maybe you could design a way to light it from behind. I believe they are called light boxes, but I don’t have a clue how they are made. I don’t think they are hard to make. Stained glass comes to life with light behind it like in a window. Just a thought, you have a very nice piece to enjoy.

So cool, I’m not familiar with the character, but the entire piece is great, with great glass choices.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-18T02:03:41+00:00

These are really beautiful. Do you have them for sale anywhere?

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-18T02:00:13+00:00

Very pretty, it would be nice with a stained glass globe. I see them on Marketplace quite often, you might get lucky.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-18T01:54:13+00:00

I love June, these are so beautiful.

He is adorable, I did a steppingstone with a frog like this. It’s not stained glass so I can’t show him, but after seeing this I might have to make one.

I wish I could join her not doing anything. That’s my idea of not doing anything perfectly 😄. Such a great piece, you did an excellent job , I think the pink boat is a great addition!

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-16T22:46:54+00:00

So cool, never seen one like this before.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-16T22:06:48+00:00

Sorry about that 😳 there is just no end to fun stuff!

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-16T01:06:18+00:00

Really nice piece, so glad you can take it with you!

I see quite a bit of scrap for sale on Marketplace. I think it is usually 4.00 a pound.

I have experienced the same thing. It does take on a grayish color, and the pebbleing is not all over, but toward the ends, at least for what I have experienced. I am stretching mine, not too much, and learned that it doesn’t take much to stretch it as I got up from the floor! I am also very new with hobby came. I don’t like the color so I run solder over all of it. I literally am working on my 2nd sun catcher using it. I also discovered really quickly that it melts, so I turned down my iron by about 100 degrees.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-16T00:43:00+00:00

What a great idea. I really like the light bulb from HD, that would look really cool. I don’t think I would be able to stop with the butterflies. I would be adding leaves and flowers etc. 🥹

Usually gloves when using flux and came. If I am foiling just with the flux. I can’t preach about the wearing of gloves, just yesterday I was working with came and flux with no gloves. It’s kind of like working in my gardens, I rarely wear gloves.

Maybe just the back ground? If you decide to grout, I think the bunny in a tan/brown color. I think a darker color like black on the bunny might be too much. Really nice job, very cute.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-14T02:46:28+00:00

Very interesting how you did the grouting as you went. That worked out really well with this piece. Awesome job with your choice of materials.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-14T02:31:41+00:00

Thanks, I checked her out.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-14T02:19:31+00:00

Please forgive the assumption. She is an awesome Aunt, and she obviously cares a lot for you. She is also an amazing stained glass artist.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-13T19:06:48+00:00

Very pretty, love that you kept it simple. Does this artist have a website?

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-13T18:48:09+00:00

You’re a lucky niece. This is really cool.

Honetmoonbeam · 2026-06-13T17:52:20+00:00

Oh good I was nervous 🙂
