Can You Make Your Stained Glass Hangings to Fit My Window Size or My Color Palette?

I get these two questions alot. Especially for the Stained Glass Sun Hanging Panel SDGA_307 the "Sun God" as it's been called many times.
The stained glass hangings sold on the website's SHOP NOW! tab in the STAINED GLASS HANGINGS page are made from a pattern  used over and over again. There is no time spent on designing or sizing. Just take out the pattern and go! These stained glass panel hangings are made from glass and material that is left over from other projects. All left over materials are used in the best possible manner. When a specific color palette is requested, stock may not be available. If this is the case, the glass must be purchased and the price would be $80.00 sq ft. When the hanging sells, another is made. The colors and textures depend pretty much on what is on hand and looks nice together. These panels are also made when there are no other comissions or jobs ,which take priority over stock items. So basically done on spare time only. This 19" round stained glass hanging takes about 5-1/2 hours to make from starting to cut, grind, foil, burnish, solder to patina and polished finished.

A client requested the panel below made for a 31" x 27" window using her color palette. This panel was priced differently because of a pattern that needed to be made, labor and material costs involved.
The stained glass hanging below is actually made from the 19" round pattern. There was however labor involved as well as materials needed for this panel. This panel is priced at $80.00 per sq ft with the customary 3 sq ft minimum waived because there was no sizing and designing involved.
I hope this answers your questions on custom colors, sizing and price. Please fell free to contact us if you should have any questions.
