Congrats on getting it finished. You should be really proud of yourself.
If you were theoretically to sell it, what would the price be including materials and labour and profit?

The materials were about $75, because the table was already made- I found it in a junk shop for $20. I think I have about 20-30 hours effort into it. So... $300, maybe? (That's kind of a shit hourly rate, but on the other hand, stained glass tends to be cheap thanks to Mexico and China.)

It's a serious piece of work, that. Nice one.

Cutting the glass was hard enough- but foiling it was a MAJOR pain in the ass, especially the water lilies. They just did not want to go together right! I had to do a hell of a lot of fiddling with it to get them together, and then soldering them was a serious pain.
I'll just be glad to get the damned thing out of my house, as I'm tired of looking at it.
