One of my favorite stained glass moments is watching a client show us the installed piece in his or her home. We don't always get to experience this pleasure when we have someone else take care of the install. I feel elated to be able to bring joy to a family as they live with our art.
The Clarke's have a lovely home built in the 1800's. The original house was a tiny log house which they have brought up to date in a beautiful way. The original owner was a blacksmith. They have found many fascinating artifacts while digging around the property. They left an exposed wall of the cabin in the interior of the house where they have displayed these treasures.
I so appreciated the tour of their home and property and loved the joy they expressed while showing us where the stained glass tree of life now resides.

This gem of a house is so inviting. It is a pleasure to be able to have a piece in such a welcoming home.

Even the shed in the back is homey and inviting. It is original to the property.
This little shed window was made in our studio and looks perfect hanging here.
|
I loved the barn door effect that is below the window in the bedroom. The home owner made this window in class at our studio. The colors look beautiful with the decor of the room.

And here is the tree of life window. It is meaningful to the family in many ways.
The colors in the tree represent a real tree in their back yard. The little bird had a red breast which is their daughter's favorite color.
Eventually each child will be represented with a window and her's is the first.

Just for fun I have added a close-up of their bathroom tile. I fell in love with it. There is an organic feel in the geometric shapes that is so pleasing.
This is just an extra little something I thought you might like. I sure did.
I did a "Wisdom Wednesday" Video That Goes With This. "Decorating With Stained Glass"
