What a great addiction! Nice colors too.
Do you have any old GPQS lying about? there were some small carousel horses in them a couple of years ago and there's a neat rocking horse Spectrum pattern.

Very pretty, Audrey! Why don't you adapt your first carousel horse?

Elizabeth, I might,but it is very detailed so I would really have to make some changes. I would like one that looks different as they would be seen at the same time, but if I adapt it enough to remove many small pieces i guess it wouldn't be recognized. I know I have seen a couple free patterns, so I will take a look at them.

It's great!
I know what you mean about matching up the outer pieces,
like most things the second time is easier.
I hope you find a horse pattern you can adapt.
Sometimes finding a pattern seems like a full time job!
How did you find the 3D flower tutorial?

Helen, I tried the flower once before and ran into some issue assembling it and quit. This time I has a better "jig" and had no trouble. I want to try the other flowers - maybe a pot full.

Did you try using plastercine or mac tack?
You can really mold either one easily so you get the right angle
for tacking and soldering.
Can you show us your flower jig?

Never heard of either one. I took apart the flower jig, but it takes a whole minute to build. I took 2 pencils and some huge push pins to secure them, and spaced them where I wanted. Placed 2 push pins on both the inside and outside of both pencils to secure them enough to start to solder the 2 flower pieces. Then I turned the two petal section of the "poppy" over and laid it across one pencil so it was level and soldered the back. Then beaded the edges.

I can invision your jig.
I just used the mac tack (used to hold a poster on a wall
without leaving marks, very similar to plastercine) and formed
the angle then placed the two pieces of glass on the mac takc
and tacked and soldered. They didn't move, which was my goal too!

Yes, and you can even buy scented Play-doh.
