Big fan of the show. Looking forward to seeing how they wrap it all up but will be sad when this season is over.

For my bridal shower, a friend gifted me with a Star Wars Imperial logo sun catcher from a local comic con. While at Dragon*Con I found the same artist in the dealer room and began to admire her other sun catchers. Then I spied the SpongeBob one. Hmmmm.... a Nickelodeon sun catcher.... wait a minute!

I asked the artist, Suzy Rosema of Temujin Studio, if she took commissions. She did and I began to explain what I was interested in. She said she had caught a few episodes of Avatar and would love to make one. When I got home I emailed her a photo of Iroh's drawing of the four elements in the sand.

Today, a box arrived!

I'm absolutely in love with it. It's about the size of a dinner plate and has some weight behind it. Not sure suction cups will do the job, so we'll have to figure out a place to display it.

If the window frames are wood - go to the local hardware store and buy two
SMALL "Screw Eyes" >>>

AND - enough small CHAIN (the same style & size that's on the L Catcher now) ...
enough chain to reach from the light catcher UP to the top of the wooden window frame,
TWO Times.

Assembly ~~~
* Screw two of the Screw Eyes into the window frame - the same distance apart as the
two attachment points on the Light Catcher are seperated.

* Open the end loop on the ends of the new chain

* Hook the chain onto the Screw Eyes

* Measure or calculate (count the links) so both chains are the SAME length
* AND will support the L Catcher at the correct height

* OPEN the lower end loop of the chains and HOOK onto the light catcher loops
* Remove to old support chain

And there ya go --- one Light Catcher rather firmly *Hung*!

Wow it's beautiful. :)
I watched with my cousin a few times and really liked it.I know what you mean about a series ending it's so sad.
But I am a huge fan of the Yu-gi-oh chartoon.
