I completed the church commission in Iowa and the windows were installed! A dedication ceremony will be held next weekend. The photos will be uploaded as soon as my laptop heals from it's "black eye!"
I
head out today to another new client in New Glarus, Wisconsin. She has
chosen a hexagon pattern containing oak leaves to adorn her front porch!
I'm looking forward to this commission. It is smaller (26 inches) so it
will give me some much needed instant gratification. I enjoy the large
commissions but now and again it is nice to do a piece and be done in a
week or so. LIFT UP YOUR ART! With gratitude, Laurie
Hello readers! I felt the need to take one month (almost) off of my blogging to clear my head, refocus my energies and tend to some family issues that arose in April. Family first in all things has been my motto for many a year now. I am back and ready to blog away about my new adventures. My husband is in the throws of building a new stained glass studio to accomodate my new large stained glass commissions. I have found a wonderful home on Facebook and recently started a Fan Page of which I hope you all join. I will open up discussions regarding the process of stained glass, answer questions that I am able to address and share my newest creations with you there. The Olde Farmhouse has kept us very busy over the past couple of months. We had a horrible flood and had to evacuate but have made a full recovery. I harvested gallons and gallons of strawberries over the past two weeks with the help of my loving husband and mother and we have all of the flower beds under control for the most part. I was blessed to spend a week with my grand daughter. She has a beautiful, sweet and loving spirit and at seven months I can only imagine what the next year will bring! She is truly a miracle. Sebastian bonded with her and they are simply joined at the hip. Please check out The Looking Glass Fan page
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/pages/THE-LOOKING-GLASS/85733685674?ref=mf and become a fan! It is nice to be back here on Blogger. I missed sharing the ins and outs of life as a stained glass artist with you. Pictures of my flowers, grand daughter, pets and various other parts of my daily living will continue here! With gratitude, Laurie B.
This is one of the commissions I recently completed and wanted to share it with you. She is on her way to a lovely lady in New York. I just love how the copper patina turned out and wanted to share this beauty with you. If anyone has special requests from my inventory on Etsy I've got openings to do commission work and love working one-on-one with clients. Enjoy! With gratitude, Laurie B.
