Oh, I love this! The patterns and colors were all picked by the customer and she did a fantastic job of it. What an amazing transformation of an old window frame 💕

Thanks to Dustin McCarty for creating a powerful video that brings his dad’s memorial project to life. Starting with the original photo of Dustin, his brother, and their father on the last West Virginia trip they were able to take together, the pictures flow through to completion of the project. My heartfelt condolences to Dustin and his family on the loss of their family patriarch. 💕

The end result and the original photo.  💕

After 6-1/2 hours and three pounds of solder, the soldering is now complete. Next will come a frame and then patina to turn those silver solder lines black and make all the colors pop.

And now no more photos (except for a few sneak previews) until the owner has a chance to see it in person in a month or so.

Today is solder day - getting closer to having this piece completed!

For me, soldering was originally the hardest part of learning stained glass. It took a lot of practice and time to get a consistent, raised bead. Now it is one of my favorite parts of the process. Plus, once the solder is complete, it is time to hold it up and see “first light” with the sun shining through it. Happy Monday everyone ☀️

Sometimes real life gets in our way, or in the way of how we think our lives should go. I am thankful to be back in my shop and working on this memorial piece - I have missed these guys. I recently had surgery and then we had a horrible ice storm which made a treacherous trip out of walking across our yard to my shop. It has been 6 weeks since I’ve “broken glass” but I’m now fully recovered from my surgery and the ice has thawed, so I’m back in my favorite spot. 💕

Looking for that special present for your Harley fan? This panel is 20” x 20”. The red and blue glass sparkle in the sun - it would look fantastic in someone’s man cave. Discounted today for small Business Saturday - $450.
