The most traveled highways are the most stressful areas to be on, now why not go the road less traveled.
On these little roads you’ll get to find the most wonderful little treasures. Why see one car after another and not have time to look around, on the smaller highways you go at a slower pace and get to look at the scenery. It’s on these roads that we find artist of unique yard décor and wonderful stained glass windows that will take your breath away. Some of the friendliest folks you will ever meet, people who will welcome you and share with you their techniques. This is where you will meet unrecognized raw talent, true artists that have the most spectacular stained glass and yard décor. People that, know how to use their surroundings and material at their disposal to create.

What next?  It’s a problem

Too many projects in mind not enough time. It’s 6a.m. and I should be sleeping but here I am thinking of what project  I should start.  A series of turtles, a mosaic, Thomas the train or should I start with a window size butterfly, and the list goes on.  I really want to concentrate on the right project right now.

See the problem, when you are an artist at heart to many projects, not enough time.   So many times a lack of sleep will make my list of things to do, longer and longer.  So at 6 am I start going over my inventory in my head.  I’ve got everything to start the turtles, I’m missing one glass color for Thomas the train and I haven’t looked at what colors I’d like to make my butterfly.

These projects should be easy to do projects and take no time at all.  What am I saying, no time at all? I’m looking at a good two hours, not bad at all.  Then don’t forget the wash, buff and shine.

So, you guessed it. I did Thomas the Train, he should have taken 2 hours, after starting over a few times, I finally got it right.  Well, almost because although it looks good, next Thomas the Train will be a little more symmetrical.   All I can say is, it’s cute and I hope Jack likes it.
