Stained Glass Lantern Project

I took a stained glass class at a local school district's community education programs. It was well worth the inexpensive tuition to get instruction from someone who has done stained glass for 30 years!

My first project was a suncatcher, it came out OK:


Next I got the idea to make a lantern, with a Christmas theme. Here are the three panels, having just cut the glass:



Here's what the lantern looked like, once the three panels were soldered separately, then soldered together in a triangular form:



These pictures were taken in the living room, with the room lights off. I like the way it looks:




My personal favorite is the side with the candle on it.
