I like the hearts theme. Should we leave it open as far as medium, size, etc. What about twinchies? We've done inchie size and ATC'S. Dont know if the size would feel too restrictive for some.

I also agree a January deadline is a bit too soon for me.

GeorgiaMa'am, the Gallery Glass is working perfectly on all the small bits of glass I have for my shadow boxes. Thank you so much!

Maybe people could choose between inches and Twinchies?

Georgia or CCB, do you mind describing the specifics of how to work with gallery glass?

I just used it like glue. I put it on the back of a flat glass flower and just stuck it down. And it's already STUCK even though it says it takes eight hours to dry. Same with the morphine bottle. It has other uses, like the stained glass or fixing cracks in glass or mirrors. But I'm using it exactly like a glue and it's working so far.

To clarify what I meant was maybe each person could choose between making an inchie or twinchie or some combination.

Umm... what's twinchies? What's ATC?

I'm afraid I'm still more Butch than I am crafty! :p

Like, like, like, like, like - let's do it!

P.S. Twists thicken the plot and are good too :)

SECRETS!!!! I got my package today and tore right into it. Everyone did such a great job!! I loved all the cards and the secrets. It was a total joy to open. Thank you to everyone for your hard work!

To use it for stained glass, you probably want some kind of raised border - like the frame of a window, or something you make with the Gallery Glass leading. But you don't have to have a border. Then you just cut the bottle of Gallery Glass open so it has a small opening in the tip, turn the bottle upside down, and swirl it around on the glass. You can do it on something lying flat, but you can also use it on something vertical, like a window. Don't shake the bottle, as that will make air bubbles, and you want to avoid air bubbles. And if you don't like it, just peel it off the glass like a window cling once it's dry! (Go ahead, just try some on your bathroom mirror! Have fun!)

I like the idea of a thoughts about love and/or general friendship art theme as opposed to narrowing it down to just one thing – hearts. However if that's what group will, consensus is, I can go with it.

Oh an ATC (art trading card) is a work space for art smaller than a post card but bigger than a twinchie (tiny work space) or inchie (itsy bitsy work space). Just type them into google seach, hit images and you'll see examples, be able to tell the difference.

I think making the theme Love is a good idea. It's open to many interpretations, including hearts, or anything else love and friendship means to you.

I also concur that a like a smaller size. I feel like it's easier to create a bite size and replicate it many times if a lot of people join. Plus I feel like I am forced to be even more creative with a smaller size!

I agree projects should not be a free for all, and people should follow the concept and rules as closely as possible. I did my time when I didn't.

For example love is a very broad concept, but if we decided on say twinchies, if someone turns in a 5 X 7 piece it's just annoying to me. I am a toe the line person with projects too.

Thanks for the definitions y'all re twinchies vs Inchies! This must be a sign because I was just cleaning out a closest and came across my collection of TINY books from the 90s! They're still super cute! So... yeah... I'm game for this project! ;)

When y'all say a "series" ... do you mean like a set of two or three pieces per person? If so, I'm cool with that... but I also agree it would depend on how many participate.

Since they're going to be small... wouldn't that make displaying them kinda difficult? Maybe... not so difficult if ... let's say.. they were magnets!? Am I getting carried away? :p
