Plant Stakes - some good

Well yesterday morning I looked in the kiln and was disappointed by my little experiment w/ aluminum.

darn

The glass was too hot to handle and tonight was my first chance to get back and take pictures. Life is good, but busy and can get in the way of glassing.

My other garden stake was made w/ copper star inclusions. The copper turns red when used this way and can be very pretty.

I learned.

Anyone want some aluminum? 

Actually the disintegrated aluminum is cool, it's just not the effect that I was looking for in this project.

I'm sure I will be able to use this in the future.
