Thank you Cat, for posting these, & thank you guys for your nice comments. I have to add tho, that Danny Baronian had acid etched the gold letters for me first, & did a beautiful job!
I also want to add, that Cat has been very instrumental in inspiring me & helping along in learning to gild on glass! Thank you so much Cat, you are a very special person!

Bobbie has the right attitude & skill for this type of work, Gold Leaf work is certainly addictive, but very rewarding.......... We are having another Gold Leaf Workshop in Boise on October 1, 2 & 3, if anyone is interested.. Noel is working on some Seasonal artwork especially for this one...........
