May we never be the reason.

Be mindful of your reactions.

Be mindful of your bias.

Be mindful of your face.

Take a closer look at your own fears.

Examine your judgment of right and wrong.

Bring good and bad in a bit closer.

Just because you stopped singing doesn't mean they can't sing beautifully.

Just because you're caught up in other's opinions doesn't mean they shouldn't wear exactly what they shine in.

Just because you gave up on your dreams is no excuse for squashing another's.

Quiet mouth....raised arms.....and an applause that drowns it all out.

You just keep clapping.
Put those other messages aside.
That's your s**t, not theirs.

You don't have the right to saddle others with your own head trash.

a wonderful london wedding Two friend from my betters half's work got married last summer. They had a beautiful wedding at Somerset House Terrace in London. As an extra and personal gift I decided to take one of their amazing pictures and recreate it in stained glass. They were delighted!

WHAT A VIEW 23/05/2021

Feeling serious holiday envy! This was based on a photo from Tenerife or a hidden cave.....read more in my blog today!

WHAT A VIEW There is a cave El Bujero - Los Gigantes (rock gate) that's very hard to find buried in the hills in Tenerife. My good friend's Dad and his friend hiked there, and took this amazing picture. I wasn't sure if I could overlay the people in copper foil (soldered and patina'd black) , but I think it tur...

I LOVE STOWE GARDENS 28/04/2021

My latest blog

https://www.glassmoments.co.uk/post/i-love-stowe-gardens

I LOVE STOWE GARDENS I've struggled with my mental health during the pandemic especially during lockdown, as have a large chunk of the UK. I'm lucky enough to love near Stowe and being able to escape to there has been critical to my recovery. It's a beautiful peaceful place and it's been lovely to observe the spring flo...

puppy dog eyes 23/03/2021

Sorry I haven’t blogged for a while. Like many people I’ve really been struggling with my mental health during lockdown.

Starting to feel a bit more human now, so wrote a quick blog starting the lovely Hazel - Becki Rendell’s beautiful dog 🐶

https://www.glassmoments.co.uk/post/puppy-dog-eyes

puppy dog eyes Just look at those eyes! Okay so she's isn't exactly a puppy, but she has the most adorable expression in this picture. This is Hazel, my sister in-laws beautiful rescue dog who is very timid and very loving. Due to lockdown I haven't even met her yet, but I couldn't resist creating her in glass.

Capturing A Running Man 24/07/2020

New blog for a Friday - hurrah for opening.
https://www.glassmoments.co.uk/post/capturing-a-running-man

Capturing A Running Man Stained glass is always a good random topic of conversation, and one that came up when I found myself at Working Bodies with my not quite working body (pre lockdown obviously). The upshot was a commission to create a version of the working Bodies logo (it's a gym and therapy centre). Bigger than my....

https://www.glassmoments.co.uk/post/i-can-move-mountains

If necessary I can move mountains! Sometimes customers want to capture their favourite view, or even merge some of them together to create something unique. The lady in questions lives in and loves the mountains of North Wales, particularly the majestic Snowdon. She'd seen a painting of a cottage set in a beautifully coloured autumna...

Alert - Instagram Novice I'd like to think I'm not bad when it comes to social media. However having now set up (give me a follow) it turns out I'm rubbish! Luckily my 17 year old daughter is something of an expert. She helped me work out how to create a story and worse still set it to music. So I can only a...

All Very Zen - The Blue lotus story 18/06/2020

A happy story on a rainy day!

https://www.glassmoments.co.uk/post/all-very-zen-the-blue-lotus-story

All Very Zen - The Blue lotus story I made the blue lotus below a little while ago, and rediscovered it when rearranging my studio last week. As luck would have it a chance conversation with a friend, resulted in her buying it as a gift for her friend who owns Blue Lotus Pilates. Serendipitous - very zen!
