Several friends and I got together a while back to make solder crowns. This is mine. It took longer to decide what to put between the glass as art and tape it than it did to solder the whole crown together.
I bought this angel several months ago on a trip to Canton. I bought another one this past time I went but do not have a photo of it. I gave it to a friend for her birthday. The body of hers was made from a book and the wings were wood so it was a little different. They are simple but very cute and folk artish.
A few months ago I gave a dear friend of mine this angel made from a book. I bought him at Canton and mentioned it in another post because I had gotten myself one before. Here is the link for the original post http://artstudio522.blogspot.com/2010/08/solder-crown-folk-art-angel.html. I did not post a photo of her angel so here it is hanging in her home and a close-up of him. The friend use to be a teacher so I thought the book was perfect!
