These inspired me to try working on the windows and existing cheap fixtures to make them look like stained glass with Gallery Glass paints

]] This is the door window to the back porch. You can peek out the eyes to see into the garden.
We are now working on several of the other boring lamps in the house:[[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-019F|

In the kitchen we are taking this ugly fixture [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-021F|
]] and using the colors of the plates we have decorating the room [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-008F|
]] as well as the pattern from the lace curtains [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-005F|
]] we are making matching designs to "goose" the lamp and the edges of windows: [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-004F|
]] First we lay out leading on plastic [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-010F|
]] Then we fill the pattern with color. [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-018F|
]] then we lay the pattern on the glass and fill in the blank spots. [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-009F|
]] On the small shades we apply leading directly to the shade and then fill in with color once it is dried. [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-011F|
]] To do the simple geometric edges o the windows we put leading in rows and curves on plastic. [[tara_photoalbum/may99homecrafts/MVC-013F|
]] Then peel it and stick it to the window in patterns, before we put in the color.
