"My experience with Stained in Glass during the planning and creation of my project was pleasurable and enjoyable. The quality of their craftsmanship is superb. Their first draft of the design was right on the money. I had given them a general pattern for part of the design along with potential glass colors. They took it from there and came up with a pattern that is now a timeless addition to my newly remodeled Craftsman/Frank Lloyd Wright style home. Thanks Guys!!!"

:: From The Start ::
Gable End Sidelight Suggested Color and Style

The customer contacted us to enquire as to whether we could produce 3 identical panels in the style of Frank LLoyd Wright for a gable end whilst incorporating an existing element from an existing window. We got the customer to send us some photos and suggestions for designs and colors and set about producing them some artists impressions.

Artist's Impression Imposed onto Gable End The Designs

We were very lucky that the first design we submitted was almost on the money, so after a few alterations to colors we had designed what the customer was after. The customer had submitted a photo of where the panels would end up so we were able to produce an example with the design superimposed into the space to try to give a better feel for what the end panel might look like.

As our projects progress we like to keep a photo diary. We make this diary availble to the customer so they can see how things are going at any time in the project. We hope this gives the customer a sense on inclusion as the build process can sometimes be several weeks, and as the saying goes 'a picture is worth a thousand words'. This is just a small sample of those photos.

The Pattern Panel Being Made A Built Panel

We try to include images showing the panels in varying lights like facing the sun, the sun behind the panel, this helps to demonstrate the visuals of what might be expected once the panel is in situ. Once the panels are complete we produce a set of large photos so that the panels can be inspected at close quarters. These include close-up of came work and the like so that you can really see the details of the work. We even take a snap of the packaging if we have to custom build it.
