This is so beautiful Judy. Love the light shining through the glass and highlighting the pretty bow.

@Marion: Thanks, Marion ... this was a delightful project for Mike and me. He drilled the glass block, then I fed the 10-light string of lights through the hole and put the bow on it. :D

Really pretty effect. A neighbor has stacked a bunch of these glass cubes on his lawn and backlit them as a kind of decoration, but he didn't put ribbons on them, so they look more like a multi-layered wedding cake. I like the way you did this; the photo is very Christmassy. Hope Belle is doing well; Bella sends her best tail wag and puppy love.

@Viewfinder: Thanks, Glenn. I was thrilled when Mike agreed to try drilling the glass block for me ... the rest was easy.

Belle sees her vet tomorrow afternoon, so hopefully we'll have some answers after that. ♥

@tyan: I had never worked with the edge-wired ribbon before this, and I have to say it is so easy using this medium.

I love the glow and light through the transparency of the bow.
A wonderful Christmas Gift Box.
Gosh it is that time of year already. I am trying to catch up on things.
