A fabulous present and card in one!

This dainty pair of interlocking stained glass hearts are beautiful. They are hung using tiger wire and are attached to one of my handmade cards similar to the one shown and can be sent direct to the recipient with your message included.

My 'interlocking hearts' or 'double hearts' designs are made from two of my hand cut hearts, made using beautiful iridescent glass, some of which are opaque others are transparent. They have decided to join together and are ready to be sent to, and to settle into, their forever home !!

A fabulous valentine's, engagement, wedding or anniversary present.

This is one of a range of 'interlocking' or 'double hearts' which have been made with a hand made hoop soldered onto the top of each one so the twisted wire can be threaded through ready for it to be hung.

This pair of hearts is different from the last and from any which will be designed and made in the future, so a completely unique gift. The colours and textures of each heart always compliment each other.

These cards have been bought as an engagement, wedding or anniversary present and can be ordered to be in a range of colours according to your personal choice eg red for a ruby wedding anniversary.

This card with interlocking or double hearts will be posted to you in a padded envelope.

I would be very happy to write a personal message in this card from you to the recipient (on your behalf) and post it direct to them, or to attach your handwritten note from you into the card . Let me know your message and their address when you order this card.
The Hearts

The process starts with the making of two of my own design of a heart from a range of beautiful, textures and shades of transparent and opaque stained glass, until I find the perfect complimentary combination. Each piece of the chosen glass is cut into the shape of a heart before the edges are ground smooth, copper-foiled and bead-soldered together and the hoops added to the top of each heart.

When I am happy with the final design and all the soldering is finished the piece is thoroughly washed and dried and at this point I decide whether to leave the solder silver or to use a copper patina, to change the colour of the solder to compliment the colour of the glass used, before the final piece is polished and the twisted wire is added.

I cut out one or two hearts from the white card which forms the front of the card. Then I glue the two white cut out heart(s) onto the inside of the internal card. I stick the two cards together after looping the wire of the hearts onto the outside card to hold it in place until the recipient receives it and decides where they would like to hang it in their home.
