Egyptian Hieroglyph Wall Remnant

I fell in love with the idea of Ancient Egypt as a child.  I used to read all the books I could get my hands on until I started getting nightmares after learning too much about the embalming process.  Those people were a bit macabre and had a slightly obsessive relationship with the afterlife.

Years later I finally went to Egypt.  On my to-do list every holiday, is go shopping for the perfect souvenir.  I was surprised and quite disappointed to find that Egypt (at least where I was looking) didn't really have much in the way of cool arty stuff - unless you want some bright, gaudy papyrus paintings - which in the end is what I bought.

So on my return I decided to make my own Egyptian souvenir.  I found an image of some hieroglyphs and thought it would be cool to have my own chunk of wall  - a piece of a pyramid, like the early archeologists used to do. What vandals! 

My very own section of an ancient Egyptian wall, covered in hieroglyphs.

Stained Glass Door Re-Paint

The door is repainted and the stained glass now looks fab I think.
