Dove Panel


This stained glass dove panel was brought to me with about half of the pieces broken as the result of an unfortunate accident. Given the sentimental value of the piece, the owner wished to have it repaired as it was a wedding gift. It gives me great joy to see it in the completed, whole state.

Colourful Stained Glass Valance




The idea of this valance came to mind when we were getting nowhere with traditional ones. We took our idea on paper to Carol and she tweaked it in a way that just made it come to life. Absolutely perfect with great craftsmanship, and an all round great experience. Fred and Starr, London

Transom Project


A recent project included 7 transom windows for a new home in North London. It was a real thrill for me to work on this project. Hope you enjoy the photos.

Testimonial from the McLean Family of Lucan

We were looking for help to create authentic pieces to go over our windows. Our house is a hundred plus years old so we wanted to go with a traditional yet creative panel. In one window we wanted to use our family crest as the focal point.



We were also able to incorporate some of the glass from the original window that was there. Carol suggested adding two Celtic knots to accent the design. It was exactly what we were looking for.



For the front window we didn't have an idea of what we wanted except it had to incorporate our house number. Through consultation we ended up with a design that perfectly suited the house.





We appreciated Carol's input as she helped us design pieces that will last for years to come. We love our stained glass. The colours and craftsmanship are wonderful.
Thanks Carol!
