Stained Glass Windows

Post by Sir Henry » Mon Apr 27, 2020 3:04 pm

A tree fell down two winters ago which made the master bedroom too open to the neighbors house. It’s not a window I look out but I like the illumination of natural light.

My solution was to hang three old stained leaded glass windows. They make a better view than of the neighbors kitchen which is about 25 yards away.

Excellent solution. And adds peace and beauty to the room. Well done, Gene.

Beautiful solution to the privacy issue Gene!
I wouldn't doubt that the neighbor likes it too.☺

I suspect so I had them hanging on the sill for a short time and they committed on them.

More stained glass. This time for the kitchen. I bought these yesterday.

I’ve had these for about a year and they overlook the outdoor kitchen.

Very nice, we had some donated to our charity by Applebee's to auction when they remodeled, I always regret not buying a few just for the color it would have added to the house. But they were all sports theme patterns, Miss T wasn't havin' it. :twisted:

I bought two more stained glass windows for the family room. These are getting harder and harder to find. Almost all of them come from England and Wales.
