This is a stunning piece of my work inspired by my love of English Bluebells.

My idea of making this panel was to enable each hanging 'bell' to be able to 'nod' whilst still being attached to the the rest of the plant and also having the background of the green vegetation and wispy, cloudy sky.

You may notice when you see more of my work that I love circles too!

The design starts with the bluebell and so each one is slightly different from the last one I made but always includes the bluebell plant, a selected piece of mainly green (grassy) stained glass and another carefully selected streaky white and clear stained glass.

It is hung from a nylon line which is threaded through the hidden hoops soldered to the back of the panel. It can be hung in your home eg in a window or against a mirror.

An original piece. A fabulous present.

This hanging is an example of the one I would make for you, until I have made a new one!

Each of the 2 pieces of stained glass which form the background have gorgeous varying patterns and colours. The piece used at the bottom is steaky green suggesting the grass the bluebell is growing in. The top piece gives a wispy, cloudy appearance.

I have soldered 2 hidden hoops behind the back of the panel and have threaded some nylon line through the hoops and secured them in place so it is ready to hang.
This piece of my work is made up of numerous pieces of beautiful stained glass.

Each piece of stained glass was cut by hand, ground smooth, washed, copper foiled and soldered before being arranged and tack soldered together.

Each of the three bells, has two shaped pieces of wire soldered to the top and bottom to indicate the separate petals of each bell. The three blue wires are individually shaped and soldered to the top of each bell and to the rest of the plant with solder.

The final arrangement was then bead soldered along every joint and around the outside, hoops were made and attached in place before the whole piece was treated with black patina, thoroughly washed and polished.

A tiger line was added so the final piece is ready to hang.
