I smashed up some of my large potmelts and made this box and lid.  The sunflower and leaves are freeze and fuse pieces.  Thanks for looking!

That is really cool Marsha. I love the look of the box. It reminds me of terrazzo...very cool indeed! Your sunflower turned out very well too! I have an upcoming project in which I am going to try my hand at casting with frit. I hope it comes out as well as yours.

Well done, Marsha!  It does have a wonderful organic look and the little flower is the perfect topper.

I made the purple one and I backed off the schedule for the lid because the first purple one looked too cooked!! And it looked nothing like the bottom.  Now the top is a little bumpy....should I try to re-fuse it or will a polish schedule flatten it out????
