FRIDAY'S Show and Tell at Cindy's "My Romantic Home"

This week, for Cindy's Show and Tell at "My Romantic Home," I'd like to share some of our stained glass pieces. Most of the pieces in our home are primarily pink and transparent glass, the exception being the one that shows "Home Sweet Home."

When I was a little girl,  the stained glass windows in church seemed breathtaking to me. They were intricately done in rich, deep colors and told "stories" of  what life was like so long ago when Jesus lived.

The pieces in our home came from Mexico, California, and various other places. (Click on each photo to enlarge for more details!)

  


Stained glass, while fragile, adds beauty and elegance to home decor.

Many thanks to Cindy for hosting Show and Tell!

    You have so many nice pieces. I think I like the last one best.

    You should blog this with Beverley's Pink Saturday - with all the pretty pink.

    I love the colours in these stained glass pieces....rather than the harsh primary schemes...

    so soft and elegant!

    They are all lovely... The tree house I lived in had 16 stained glass pieces.... 14 were windows on exterior walls and 2 were inserts in an interior door.
