I had a beautiful lampshade arrive in a thousand pieces. Lit, it would have looked like the top of a cherry tree, covered in blossom, (except it was orange). It was FAB. :cry::cry::cry: Seller gave an immediate refund, including postage, so full marks there, just why,oh, why did he pack such a delicate thing in a tight, thin box with only one layer of bubblewrap?
My next-door-neighbour is an artist, on the lookout for interesting materials for making mosaics. I gave him the bits. :P

Excellent recylcing Sue! I think we've had this conversation before, but I can't bear to throw away damaged glass. A mosaic glass artist would be a Godsend!

Yeah, but not a mosaic one! Erm...although I have done a couple of mosaic pieces. Glass is sharp though, that's the problem. I wouldn't want to make something that slashes at people! lolol!

:D Only last night when I was putting the bowl of water down in my bedroom for the cats night-time drinkies, I noticed that the piece of plastic sheet I put it on was looking a bit manky and thought to myself, "I must get a proper place-mat for this!" (Two of the cats being Bengals, they tend to splash when they drink :roll: )
Then I suddenly remembered my Walther 'Nymphen' (mermaid) tray, which was cracked and which I had repaired by that wonderful Basil Loveridge :D A little while ago I was lucky enough to get a replacement in perfect condition so I put the original away. (I couldn't just chuck it out 'cos it's still very beautiful - and I did pay for it to be repaired! :roll: )
So now the cats have their night-time drink on a beautiful glass tray! :D I just hope those spoilt girls appreciate it! :twisted: :wink: :lol:
