I bought a piece of stained glass to hang over the window to the entry door. The shop I went to has classes in designing, cutting and leading your own ideas. It sparked an interest. Nomad was wondering if anyone has tried this ?

I've never tried myself, but I've seen if done...takes a lot of patience.



I love stained glass. Lots of examples in our old cathedrals. I've also seen beautiful examples of more modern designs...nothing more inspiring when the sun shine through.

Yea the beauty is the only thing holding you back is your imagination. Im especially fond of mission style and art deco

Very simple...like it very much

I had a co worker once many years ago who did it. He said it takes alot of time and patience, but he loved doing it. He always made stained glass items as gifts.

I bought a lovely stained glass panel back from Amsterdam a few years ago .

I am currently taking a class in stained glass and love it! Yes it does take some practice and patience but the results are pretty cool. It's just a beginners class so I am a long way from doing intricate designs and such but it is a relaxing way to pass the time. I would recommend it!

i haven't ever did the actual stained glass but i do know how to do the stained glass paint and the lead strips. it looks authentic and when you get tired of it you can scrape it off with a knife. i have done four glass doors in my house. my neighbors think i bought stained glass doors.
