Well..... I've been collecting glass for a while now and FINALLY I tried out creating a totem.... I have quite a bit more to make, but this is my first effort....

Very regal looking with the lovely bird keeping watch. I like the all green & the thinner look of it,(than most of them) hope it is well grounded with a thick base so it won't blow over. Jan

That's beautiful, Lesa. Is that an Eagle decanter? It makes the perfect topper, and I really like the slim look you put together. GREAT job.

hugs, Karen

RE: 1st Totem

Thank you for all your comments. Yes, I liked the slim look and I was able to find quite a few green vases that fit perfectly to make it happen. I found the decanter @ GS and paid $1.50 - yea! It DOES make the perfect topper. I also found two amber ones - one is an owl and the other an Indian.... I'm looking for the right glass to build for the pedestals.... I have a platter on the bottom for a base so it doesn't blow over. Thanks again - your comments give me encouragement (with emphasis on the "courage")!!! Lesa

You did a great job!! I LOVE the bird topper...very cool looking! Green glass is wonderful in the garden. Thanks so much for sharing it with us....and be careful...totems are VERY addicting! ;-)

Wonderful!
The green is one of my favorites, and so is amber, so be sure to post a pic of that one when you finish.
Are you sure you haven't done this before? LOL!

Your a natural at stacking glass, great job. I'm sorry to say like the others it's very addicting. Hunting glass will take over your life if your not careful, but it will be fun. What a great deal on the decanters. TFS
