Glass
Offer Expires: Until Further Notice -
|
Sometimes a studio can have too much glass for their space... that is where we are today. Prior to driving all over Michigan to find the glass you need, check our supply. We may very well have that special glass to fill your needs. Our selection includes a lot of glass from manufacturers like Youghiogheny, Bullseye, and Uroboros. I carry specialty glass you may not find elsewhere - one of a kind pieces. And, of course, I always have a lot of clear textured glass as shown in this section of a stained glass panel designed by P.C. Bacon and fabricated by Pat Deere. Some restrictions apply - but most of my glass falls into the 40% off category.

Lenawee Medical Facility Window Installation
 
When I was asked by my customer to help her create a window in honor of her husband, Richard Bailey, who recently passed away, I was honored. Bev Bailey created the sketch I began my design with and together we worked on it until it was agreeable to both of us. This is one section of the four panel window. I used mostly Youghiogheny stipple glass for the background to maximize the beauty of the window regardless of what kind of light the room currently had. More information can be found by reading the Bailey Article www.PicturesInGlass.net . Is your church or business in need of a window update?
This installation did nor require protective glass. If your building committee is considering such an installation, you may be interested in reading about protective glass from a reputable manufacturer . Feel free to call us with any questions you may have.

How It's Made... Ever wonder how stained glass is made?
You can find out by taking a class that fits your schedule - or take a class for free.
Pat Deere offers private lesson stained glass classes to customers who would like individualized attention on a date and time that works best for the student. She recently offered two dates of FREE instruction as well. To be put on the volunteer list for free classes, email us with a "Volunteer" request and we will notify you when those opportunities are offered. For more information on all of our classes, click on this CLASS link. I also try to update my blog with scheduled and free class opportunities.

GREAT GIFT IDEAS
|
 |
|
These are new items that people just love, priced within range of most peoples gift giving needs, and they come in almost any color. The night lights are beautiful when not lit and even better when lit. The fused glass bowls work great for business card holders, candles, a place to put your keys...
With the season for weddings upon us, this is one of my most popular requests. All you need to do is provide me with your invitation, and I will frame it in glass - according to your wishes. This one was framed in clear textured and beveled glass with dried flowers inserted. There are a number of prices to chose from!
There is not a customer I have installed glass cabinet inserts for that was not ecstatic when they saw them installed. What a great idea for mom!
Finally - My new web site is up and will be added to regularly. The photo on the top of the site was taken on my way home from Colorado a couple of years ago. What you see here is a log bar that is absolutely beautiful. I have a smaller version of it in my studio. I will be customizing the tables and lamps to include stained glass that will make your furniture, truly unique.No Shipping! ( See details on web site.) |
