| They are gorgeous! Wonder how they are put together and what the stamens are made of. |

| This is the closest I've come to something like that. Not nearly as beautiful or professional. |

| Here's another one. |

| I was thinking of stealing stamens from some silk flowers and gluing them in. |

| On his website he says the glass pieces all come apart and are drilled with a bolt fastening all the pieces together. They're 6' tall and made with rebar. The glass pieces are all familiar to me but I can't figure out what the stamens are and how he fixes the pieces to the stems. Sue |

| He gives all that info on his site. The stamens are molten glass. I've used copper wire and beads for some stamens. Does anybody know how much he charges? I'll bet they're WAY up there and should be. |
|
| Please, you mention his web site but don't give it to us. Please do. Thanks much. |

| Posieh, look for the post 'glass flowers' by old crafty. The web site is posted on that post. |

| Stunning ! I wish I had brought more glass with me when I moved from CT to TX. I had No Idea that glass pieces would be impossible to find here. ---- Laura |
