Grasshopper Weathervane Restoration Project with Green Glass Bug Eyes

Posted by Megan Petersen on

One of the many exciting things that the handmade glass eyes from handmadeglasseyes.com are use for is antique restoration projects. It's so cool to see original dolls, metal works, and more from decades ago brought back to life with a new set of shimmering, vivid irises.

To add a new touch of depth and character to his weather vane restoration project, William from Summerville, SC added a pair of these bright, shiny green robber fly compound insect glass eyes.
