framing stained glass

a local client had some stained glass windows with sentimental value

that she wanted to display in her house.

 the problem?

her style is very contemporary/modern and she

didn't like the look of the original wood surround.

the solution?

i suggested we remove them from the wood surround and

have them framed in more modern looking frame.

a local frame shop removed the wood and putty,

and we selected a new frame.

it really is amazing how

a great frame can transform just

about anything!

we were both really excited about the way they turned out,

and can't wait to see them up on the wall.

sometimes when i see pictures of a project,

from start to finish, i kinda chuckle to myself.

like this project...it looks really simple, right?

like it probably took a week or two?

NOPE.

i started this small project in november...

but the holidays, 

two busy people's schedules, 

and a lot of work on the

framers end made this take quite

a l-o-n-g time. that's ok though,

it was worth the wait.

happy weekend friends!
