Stained Glass Yard Banner Completed

 Following are images of the completed Stained Glass Yard Banner.  I really like how it turned out!

Stained Glass Yard Banner - bonding glass bevels

 

This process was involving bonding the color bevels onto the clear bevels.  Next step is to drill holes in outside came, secure glass onto banner frame.  

Stained Glass Yard Banner

 I am sure you are familiar with the yard banners with the metal frame:

I thought that it would be fun creating a glass panel that would attach to the frame.

The following is the design and some of the process of cutting the glass that will be hand beveled.

Evergreen Tree Design Completed!

The evergreen tree stained glass is completed and the client loves the results!  I really enjoy the flow of the glass textures and design.  This was fun to create!

 

Hummingbird Panel Cleaned

I completed cleaning the hummingbird panel.  Here are a few pictures. The next step will be scheduling the installation.

The details show the beveled color pieces.

Spot Solder and Finished Solder

Throughout the fabrication of the Hummingbird stained glass panel I am working on I have been doing a "spot" solder in different sections to hold areas together so I can keep piecing it together.  I am now in the process of doing the "finished" solder and wanted to show the difference.  I am explaining this because in pictures of the process there are images of the "spot" solder and I did not want you to think this was a finished solder joint.

The solder joint circled in yellow is the "spot" solder and the one circled in green is the finished solder joint.

Framing Large Glass Panels

In the current project that I have been sharing pictures the next step is putting the glass panels into the metal frames that have been recently painted.  It has been a little complicated than I thought it would be and took almost twice as long to complete. The results are beautiful.  I love the framework.  The paint color is to match the existing window frame color.

Installation is right around the corner!
