My mother passed away Oct. 24, an event that’s left me emotionally and physically drained. Today I finished a piece I had started weeks ago. A bud vase, 6.5 inches high, made from stringer part sheets set on edge and some bits of twisted cane. Mom would have loved it.

Latest glass creation. I had hoped to use it as a ceiling light dish, but it’s too transparent — the hardware would show. It found a new job though.
