Snowflake tiles

Earlier I posted about some snowflake tiles I was working on.  They are finally completed.


My initial plan was to have glass in the impressed snowflake design, but never having made these before, I wasn't sure how much glass to use to accomplish that.  Most of them had much more glass than needed on them, but I also like how the glass has melted over the entire tile.  Two of the seven had enough glass that it actually ran off the tile and left a big goober on the bottom.  They should clean up just fine with the grinder, but in the future I'll have to remember that more isn't necessarily better. 

Like so many other things in life. 

A few of the tiles are available at the Lanesboro Local and a few will be available at my Holiday Mud and Suds Sale this coming weekend.

Have a great week everybody.
