Hedgehog Suncatcher Stained Glass Handmade animal garden

Shared by joysofglass in the Glass Crafts


Product Description:

This is a stained glass suncatcher made using the Tiffany copper foil technique.

A new design to celebrate the return to my garden of my pair of hedgehogs.
I've named this one Snuffly Sam but feel free to call it whatever you want.

He is looking very happy indeed and I suspect he's just had a good feed of my mealy worms.

This is made with what I call my hedgehog glass. I've been making mini hedgehogs for ages and always use this multi-coloured textured glass for the body as the texture looks a bit like a hedgehog's prickles.

The front is iridescent white and I've used a silver heart bead for nose and eye. The prickles are made from wire. The feet and ear are iridescent black glass.
