Have you ever thought about replacing an existing wooden framed window with a stained glass window? Stained glass windows are a great way to enhance the look of a room or your house as a whole.
It is possible to replace the existing glazing in a window with stained glass, giving them greater character and turning your windows into a piece of art. Stained glass windows can be made to measure, customised and personalised. This will enable you to enjoy the benefits of stained glass windows even more as they can be designed to suit your home and make it unique.
Add character to your home with Stained Glass doors
Doors are a necessary part of your home, but they do not need to be boring. Most doors tend to block light from a property, so replacing them with a door that has a window allows more light into your home. Adding stained glass to a door allows you to lighten your home whilst maintaining a level of privacy. Stained glass amplifies light and can create beautiful colours and patterns inside your home, brightening your inside space.
Stained glass doors can also add an element of beauty to the exterior of your property, and make it memorable and unique to passers-by and neighbours alike.
Why choose Stained Glass Windows for your home?
One benefit of stained glass windows is that as well as adding beauty to a room and your house, they can provide additional security and privacy for you and your family as they obscure the view into your house. For this reason, stained glass windows are a popular choice for windows being overlooked by other houses and also feature windows at the front or back of houses.
The design and colours that you choose for your window can also be used to provide a particular atmosphere for your room, such as by using reds and oranges to create a feeling of warmth and homeliness. Personalise your home with a bespoke stained glass window that compliments the design of your home, or tell a story with the pattern, the choice is yours.
Where to find a stained glass window for your home
Discovering the perfect piece of stained glass for your home can be a process. For bespoke designs, you should start by looking for stained glass artisans that can help you to build your perfect stained glass window. If you choose to go down the artisan route then you can have your design created to your exact window specifications.
Another option for finding stained glass windows is looking at online retailers. Discovering your ideal piece couldn’t be easier when looking for ready-made stained glass designs on sites such as Etsy, whereas you may be able to find antiques on eBay.
Speaking of antiques, antique shops and flea markets are the ideal places to discover stained glass. Any stained glass you find in one of these will likely be completely unique, perfect if that’s how you would like to decorate your property.
Installing Stained Glass into your home
Installing stained glass windows and doors into your home involves more than choosing a design or piece that you love. You will also need to consider how your stained glass will be installed. If you have chosen a shape or pattern that does not fit into the existing space then you will need to consider hiring a professional window or door installer to remove the previous fixture and replace it with your newly chosen design.
