Today i am going to show you how to transform this big bag of trash glass off cuts that the local stained glass maker had just laying around, into something really beautiful.

As you can see from the picture they really do not look much to start off with spread out on the tray, but with a lot of patience cleaning each piece with a cloth, and sorting them into colours and sizes they start to really sparkle.

Many hours laborious fun later, sticking each piece onto the skylight roof panels, the form and colours with the backlight start to look really out of this world.

Its very addictive fun, that i just cannot leave till it's done!. After six hours, patiently working at it, the finished result that you see in this, and the very first picture is what was achieved.
Im pleased with how it worked as the light that streams through the skylights from the sun above is amazingly magical.

I woke up this morning after being inspired by curating and listening until very late into the early hours to the resteem radio show that @freedomexists presents.

The show airs each week on MSPWaves.com Wednesdays from 10 pm-Midnight UTC.
MSP Waves is a part of the @MinnowSupport Project which is amazing.

Here's a link to last nights article post written this morning by @poeticsnake

This skylight is on the other side of the ceiling to the one i did yesterday and after many hours of creativity this was the finished result. I hope you like it as much as i do too. Its totally and magically transformed my ceiling.
