I ran across this last week in e-talking to the artist-- Kimberly Chapman-- who developed the book above, and I thought you all would find it fascinating, too.
Kimberly creates stained-glass look art out of...
Wait for it...
Gummy candy.
I KNOW, astounding, right? Look at this close-up of her Lady of Shallot...
Blew me away. I'd be delighted to see a stained glass window like this, let alone to learn it's a clever confection.
Anyway, Kimberly has a book explaining how to go about these sorts of projects, so I thought I would pass the information on to you clever, crafty readers. Her website is here: http://www.eat-the-evidence.com/gummy/
She's got some other interesting things on her site, too, like art, and actual stained glass projects. There are some droolworthy Tiffany-type lamps she's done. (And you all know my addiction to lamps!)
Hope everyone has a sweet weekend ahead of them!

Amazing! Thanks for sharing this with us, Jenn. This reminds me of a Christmas cookie ornament recipe that used melted hard candies to make stained glass designs, but nothing was this elaborate!
No problem. I just found it so fascinating!
