Heart of Glass

I started today with a small box of broken glass. There were some pieces that were different colors, small pieces, large pieces and a few other things. And I had no idea what to do with any of them.

Fortunately, a friend gave me the idea to do something with hearts. I’m sure that there is a better way to cut glass than what I did, but I liked the jagged edges that came from breaking the glass up. Unfortunately, glass is really brittle so even though it is hard, when it decides to crack, you end up with a broken heart instead of just a heart of glass.

A little super glue would have put it back into its original shape, although the crack where it had broken would have been visible in the picture. Instead of pretending that a once broken heart was completely ok after gluing it back together, I decided to leave it broken for the picture. I guess it was just too soon to pretend.
