Why Expect Perfection...

I'm my own toughest critic.  For some reason if I try something new that I expect to be within my capabilities, I expect perfection from the start.  Such is the case with my first glass etching project. 

A friend had shown off her project.  She described it as "easy".  I figured I could do it.  Her piece was flat glass.  My pieces were curved
  She had all the "right" supplies.  I was improvising.  See a trend here?

I had fun practicing the process in 47 minutes of alone time while I caught a TV show I like.  In the end I have fun new etched wine glasses as a fun reminder to cut myself some slack.
