Contemporary Stained Glass Cactus/Succulents

Just finished making this set of 3 little plants in their pots.  They originated from a page of cactus / succulents doodling I did a while ago, but then I cut my hand doing a repair job and couldn't finish making them.

So it feels good to get them listed finally, and now I can move forward with my next new design which has also been hanging around on the back burner for ages.  More of that soon.

Some other nice plant-y things....

I'm also really enjoying Little Green Shed Lou's Nature in the Home series - have you seen it?

  4. Wow, these are fabulous, Flora. Succulents are about the only plant I don't kill, and I'd probably be even better at not starving them if they were made from stained glass. Consider them well and truly added to my wishlist x

    1. Hi Moira - I had forgotten about the flowers - if I make another series of these I might have to include a flower or two. Thanks for the inspiration :)
