Running Around in Circles

0 loves
Description:

Both panels are 50 by 22

The panels are made entirely of clear textured glass that was ordered from your website in September of 09

The panels were complete and installed by the 20th of February 2010.  The design is original.

They are installed in a free standing wall that separates our computer/office area from our family room.

I chose clears to let lots of light in the new room.

Paula - tried to upload 3 closeup photos but could not get them to do so.  So sorry. maybe I could try and send them to an email address?  If you want me to do so, please give me an address to send the photos to.

The circles were cut free hand - I do not have a circle cutter :-\  It really wasn't that difficult though.  I will try to get some close up photos posted - am having trouble with my camera right now - but will hopefully get it done in the next couple of hours

Thanks for the info.  I was wondering how you chose the circle sizes...did you cut the circles freehand, then, or use a circle cutter?  Would still like to see a close-up for the beauty of it all...if you have the time!

Paula - here are the glasses I used (all from Delphi!) they were all clear textured glass. Everglade (M4055), Chord (SC100C), Polkadot (V1023), Sycamore (M4057), Taffeta (M4058), Glacier, Baroque, and glue chip.  I also had several fill in pieces of clears from some years ago project that I used.  These pieces are similar to the Clear Sparkle, Konfeta, Coresica, and Double Granite.  I also used some 2" square bevels for even more visual interest.   There was one other piece I used from Delphit that was a lot thicker than the other glasses - can't remember it's name but it is no longer shown on the website. (I would not recommend that particular piece anyway :-)  It was fun to design - I knew I wanted circles that intersected and were of different sizes and also wanted some straight lines - so I took every different size of dinner plates I had and started making circles.  Glad you like the the panels! Thanks!

This is beautiful. Would love to see a close-up of the textures you used.
