Keeping up with the glassware subjects for my rainbow. This is a little votive candle holder my mother gave me when I was in college!

A sweet treasure ...love this color and the textures on the glass. You do amazing work with these glass pieces, Ann. GREAT pov.

You have a great collection of glassware and votives!! lovely color!
July 6th, 2012  
Colour and shapes are lovely!
July 6th, 2012  
I like the shade of blue or teal
July 6th, 2012  
Or would that be aqua?
July 6th, 2012  
I would never have guessed. Lovely to see the one colour actually!

@kerristephens Thanks Kerri!
@filsie65 Thanks Phil!
@anazad511 Thanks Ana!
@karenann Thanks Karenann!
@smithak Thanks Smitha! I have little pieces all over the house. I especially love the glass in my windowsill and the colors when the sun shines through.
@ruthmouch Thank you Ruth!
@digitalrn Thank you Rick! I think it's closest to a very light aqua- but I can see in this shot some teal undertones. It's probably due to the lighting.
@maggiemae Thanks Maggie! I placed the votive on a marble top which was basically a light silver-gray. I think that kept other tones from showing up in the reflections.
@groovygirlrn Thanks Sheri!

Well, only two more colors left!

Lyn
all so beautiful - what a lovely series of shots! Your glassware collection is beautiful!
July 7th, 2012  
I like this, Ann! Like the fish scale type pattern and then the inner circle at first appears to be drizzling down, so I thought it was a bubble...with liquid running down.
July 7th, 2012  
great blue
July 7th, 2012  
Love your calender view!! I knew you would have every color of glassware!! Great Job! :)
July 7th, 2012  
Ann this is really pretty. I love the pattern in the glass and the colour is gorgeous.
July 7th, 2012

Lovely colour!
July 7th, 2012  
You have so many nice keepsakes.. this is beautiful and great for the challenge.

@cimes1 Thank you Carole! I'm glad to hear all went well.
@dishaparekh176 Thank you Disha! I wanted to use something throughout the week that would be bright and colorful in the thumbnail.
@lyoungs1023 Thank you Elizabeth!
@alia_801 Thank you Alia!
@mrssmith Thank you Carla!
@sarasdadandmom Thank you Terry!
@httpgeffed Thanks Colleen! Yes, they are. So far they've all been pieces that were either gifts or handed down to me. I don't really collect glass, but I do love the pieces I have. I love the way light comes through glass- whether it's stained glass, a prism, or something decorative.
@lyno Thank you Lyn! It's a small collection, but I do love the pieces I have.
@espyetta Thanks MaryBeth! I shot this looking in to the center of the votive. It's pretty small, but it worked. The actual texture on the outside of the candle is bumpy- like glass cobblestones. On the inside it's smooth because I believe this piece was poured in a mold (you can see a seam at the bottom).
@kimmistephens Thanks Kimmi!
@ellimae Thanks Ellen! Well, almost every color. I don't really have a purple piece, but I do think I thought of a solution to that problem yesterday. I have to dig it out of storage today.
@nicolecampbell Thank you Nicole!
@beachradish Thank you Beachradish! I'm pleased with how it's shaping up!
@bkbinthecity Thanks Brian!
@potsbypam Thanks Pam!
@salza Thanks Sally. It does have that appearance on this inside, but it's actually bumpy on the outside. I think this is a poured piece (not that old). You can see a seam at the bottom.
@sangwann Thank you Dione!
@automaticslim Thanks Andy! Yes, it is. I'm really liking the color progression. And of course, now I'm impatient to post the last color so that I can see it in its entirety.
@paulavdmerwe Thank you Paula!
July 7th, 2012

July 7th, 2012

Bev
I love the color, the pattern and POV. Fantastic job!
July 7th, 2012  
@prttblues Thanks so much Bev!
July 7th, 2012  
@summerfield Thanks Vikki. When Alia posted the itinerary I started thinking about what I had that had all the colors of the rainbow. Glass was the first thing that came to mind. But I knew purple was going to be the challenge since I don't own much of anything in purple! However I did find a solution today so I'm good to go tomorrow.
July 7th, 2012  
Oooh so pretty - reminds me of the ocean!
July 8th, 2012  
@deniseinindy Thanks Denise- yes it's a beachy color for sure!
July 8th, 2012  
Great angle.
July 9th, 2012  
@la_photographic Thank you Laura! The shot was taken looking into the votive. It produced a very interesting pattern I think.
July 9th, 2012  
Love this - colour is one of my favourites!
July 10th, 2012  
@sarah19 Thank you Sarah! It's a sweet little votive!
July 10th, 2012  
Very nice details and color :-)
July 15th, 2012  
@vposey thanks Vickie!
July 16th, 2012  
Another cool pattern and colour! What a collection you must have!
July 16th, 2012  
@sanera thanks Samantha! I don't really have a big one- it's mostly on my front window sill and small pieces at that- but I do love the colors!
