Frosty spring

I am up in the air again starting a new line of stuff. I felt the glass for the door windows needed some kind of treatment to reflect the sectional nature of the frames, so I am trying chipping glass with hide glue. This was an instructive site Glass Chipping with Hide Glue.1 but no pictures. The process is described there. Here you can see four sheets of glass with the backs masked off completely with green packing tape, four areas on each piece have been bordered with tape (black tape on the upper central one). I then poured a gloopy mix of hot hide glue on to the glass and scooped off any excess once it turned to jelly. The chips around and about under the mesh are the glue chips that have ripped flakes of the frosted glass from the surface and jumped for their freedom. As it says on the web site, hide glue attracts animals and hide glue with chips of glass in should not be part of the daily dozen for your beloved petkins. Hence the mesh and the rooftop location. These pieces have been out in the spring sun on two successive days and are now almost done. A thin coating seems to form smaller chips, so a finer frost leaf pattern.
