Spring is here...time for a change...sidelites..and a few leaded windows...

I began this week cleaning the studio...organizing the tools.. taking inventory...and moving glass into the new glass racks in the back space... The beveller arrived all fixed up.. and so we start...

The first of the family crests is off to a great start with all of the leaf work cut and foiled now...other sections are with my sandblaster having the names blasted into the cathedral glass so I can back paint them... 

Our exciting contemporary project in Oakville has had another adjustment as the sidelites have gone from 76" to 92" in height ..so full scale layout is now complete...and ready to build...

And multiple cabinet inserts have been completed and delivered to their new home..  There just is not enough time in the day...and the days fly by... I cannot believe tomorrow is already Friday again.

Here are a some pictures.. have a great weekend!

Starting 2015 with some awesome projects at Glassworks Studio, one beautiful entrance being built this week!

I have a great feeling about 2015.. there is just something about a fresh start that feels so great!  We have quite a few upcoming projects that we are so pleased to be part of...

This weekend we installed the first transom window of many that will go in this year....  I will keep you posted on the progress of this project as we complete each element...   bevels will be arriving soon... we completed the interior door panels last year... this transom went in today ...and next we tackle the entrance... "Timeless.. Understated... Old World Charm and Elegance." is all that is this beautiful home.

This week we also completed the leaded panels for a beautiful entryway for an Oakville Home.  These bevel sidelites and transom incorporate a little clear granite and a lot of clear baroque...  Check out the great cutting...all of the individual pieces of baroque flow together..  Each section of this project is cut from huge sheets of baroque...  The bevels were a few select clusters we were able to bring up from the States with also quite a few from our orphaned bevel box and then a few customs...  So beautiful!
