Many ways of being creative with stained glass
Stained glass does not just mean windows. There are many ways of being creative with stained glass. Yes you can make windows, skylights, terrariums, lamp shades, door inserts or even put windows in your glass cabinets.
My husband bought this old cupboard and it really needed a lot of tender loving care. He pulled it all to pieces and rebuilt the woodwork then worked on replacing the windows as most of it was broken. So piece by piece he cut out the bits of glass and renewed each section.
You can do this with any sort of cabinets. They do not necessarily have to have been a stained glass front to start with. All you need is a pattern of your choice and size it to your requirements and start cutting and grinding each piece until they fit exactly to your pattern. Good luck I hope this will give you the incentive to get started.
