Some freeform stained glass for this overcast day...

Stained Glass Stars!

A really dreary dark overcast day today but somehow happy little stained glass stars cheer up my view out the window! 15 new stars are ready to find new homes at stART on the Street: Spring Edition on June 3 in Worcester, MA!

It helps that the rain has made my garden explode and in the background is my favorite section of the garden with the red maple and the assorted foliage (notice the totally out of place STOP sign right in the middle of the pic, ugh).
