These admittedly cute designs, using the lead came method, are a sort of hybrid between stained glass and other crafts. Without exception, the designs require something beyond the usual glass, lead and solder -- at the very least, tinned wire (14, 18 and 20 guage are employed). Some call for black paint, white paint, sheet foil, glue, even decorative pieces of wood. If you're the artsy-crafty type and have such things in your stash of materials, these designs will put them to excellent use. An askew elephant, a pensive lamb, a restrained piglet, and nervous bunny are only some of the 35 projects shown in full size.
