I guess you could say that Coleman Lantern globes are my current favorite medium. Well, I sent a couple of my etched globes to Jafe Decorating for staining red. I got these back today and they are absolutely beautiful. If you decide you want a custom etched globe you now have the option of having it colored amber or red. Once stained you can use the globes normally. Photos are on the globes page. Take care, Darren

I’ve added the process of glue chipping to my offerings on Victory Graphix. Check out my Globes page for information on these along with ordering information. Thanks for looking. Darren

I’m Starting on a project with the International Coleman Collectors Club making etched globes for their 20th Anniversary Member Edition Coleman 639 Kerosene Lantern. These are very nice globes and part of a very cool lantern that has had the vent recolored red and a custom decal on the fount. Please visit http://www.internationalcolemancollectors.com/ for information on becoming a member and ordering one of these for yourself. Tell them Darren sent you.

I'm always quietly, or sometimes not so quietly, working on some new crazy idea. If I had access to a fully decked out shop I'd probably set up a cot in the corner and work 20 hours a day on projects. Anyway I am slowly working on something new that has nothing at all to do with glass etching so stay tuned. No plans to abandon the etching, just adding something new.
