Teeny tiny treasures

Hi there and welcome! Here are some of the tiny bubbles I've been busy soldering. They are brand new, and are made out of clear glass domes. They are virtually free of bubbles, and if you've tried finding clear glass globs, you know how rare a find that is.

As you can see, they're pretty small and here's a penny for you to compare them with. The smallest is about 1/2 inch in diameter. I use the tiniest soldering tip I could find to make these teeny tiny treasures.
This is a large one, and is about the size of a nickel.
Here's the side view of one of the large bubbles.
I just started adding these to my website, so check back to see more designs as they are made.
This is another new oval shape with the Eiffel Tower on it, the other side is a rose.
It's pouring rain here in California, so I'm happy to be inside staying cozy and warm by the soldering iron. :) Let me know if you'd like a design made you didn't see here, cause I'm always open to new ideas!
Take care,
Martha
