But also books, kindness, nature, the environment, and social responsibility...

Annnnd... A moon catcher?
And if the stained glass is a sun catcher then would this be a mooncatcher? Or a rain catcher? Or an earth catcher? Maybe a fire catcher?
Because it reminds me of the phases of the Moon, I'm going to go with mooncatcher. Made with wild clay from a few places in the PNW

I kept my remnants from the practice cutting at the fused glass workshop this weekend. And now I'm going to make a little suncatcher/wind chime.

Firing the wild clay. If you look at the base of the fire, you can see some of the pieces and some of the containers that are holding other pieces. And my favorite part... Marshmallows! 😋
