Lor's Stained Glass Palm Trees

Thank you for the picture Lor!

TESTIMONIAL:
Hi Lorenia!

I am absolutely overwhelmed by this beautiful work of art! You made every aspect of the purchase so easy! I appreciate how you worked with me on the design and then configuring the dimensions that not only fit my easel, but my budget as well! I have it placed in my entryway so that it will immediately impress all of my guests. (And I will certainly provide them with your name when they undoubtedly ask who is responsible for taking their breath away!)

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!! I am confident I will be a repeat customer!

Stained Glass Olive Tree and Dove Arch Window

Picture of olive tree window from the inside of the home. I took many pictures but none were free of shadows. I think it was the angle I was taking them in.

Picture of the window from the exterior. The window's vibrant hues come alive depending on which side is receiving light. In the daytime the window's colors and design is best appreciated indoors with natural light shining thought its stained glass. At night, when the lights are on in the room, the window can be seen from the exterior.


This triple glazed window required a 12 ft scaffold (Scaffolding is a temporary frame used to support people and material in the installation of large pieces of glass. It is usually a modular system of metal pipes) and two men for installation because of height location, weight and size. The installation was about 2-1/2 hours due to the scaffold set up and handling of the glass window. Scaffolding is usually rented and adds cost to the installation.

Stained Glass Bird in Tree Bathroom Window

PICTURE ABOVE IS DRAWING
This stained glass tree is one of my favorites. The drawings I provide my clients are actually scaled to the dimension of the window to be made. The same drawing is used as a pattern when putting the stained glass piece together. So the image in the drawing is going to be almost exact as the finished stained glass piece. The colors, however, show differently on paper than in actual stained glass. My client will give me a starting color pallette prefered for the project. This provides a perfect starting point for when the actual glass selection is made from glass samples once the final drawing is approved.
PICTURE ABOVE IS ACTUAL WINDOW
It is installed above the bathtub so privacy is very important for the homeowner. I love using double gluechip glass because it is so beautifully neutral and provides the best obscurity. The use of clear textured glass for backgrounds, in my opinion, makes the design more defined. The glass colors were chosen to match the granite installed in the showers and bathtub areas.

Stained Glass Tree Bathroom Window

Carole Jensen (designer) had a request for a stained glass bathroom window for a client. In our meeting, the homeowners had the idea of using their logo as the design. After a few preliminary drawings and modifications this was the outcome.



Carole has a graceful whimsical design style which is embedded throughout the home emanating tranquility.This is the exterior view of the window in the day. When the lights are on inside, the stained glass window's colors take life. I had to take pictures of the stepping stone areas. They are such eye treats. The stones are mixed with turquoise and blue sea glass!
