Stained Glass Luna Moth

This was one of my first stained glass projects- posting here now because I just found out that Lettuce Craft exists and was formerly Craftster! I participated in the Coraline Swaps (and how fitting I’d rediscover this site when Coraline is in theaters again!) and several others back in the day… seriously what, like 15 years ago?!

I’m mainly working in stained glass these days with a little crochet in the mix. I need to sift through usernames and see if I remember anyone!

Welcome to LC! It’s always wonderful to find another former Craftster has found their way over here.

Your stained glass moth is GORGEOUS! I love your choices on the colors and composition.

Thank you, I’m definitely glad to have ended up here!

Later versions I nixed the faceted glass in the body (too fussy with those three surrounding tiny pieces) and added wire antennae. I donated this one to a local humane society’s art auction :slight_smile:

I’m covered in moth tattoos so it seemed fitting!
