Framing and Displaying Stained Glass Flowers

Window Hangings

One of the most popular ways to display stained glass flowers is by hanging them in a window. These stained glass pieces add colour and light to any room, creating beautiful patterns when sunlight passes through the glass. They can serve as both a focal point and a complement to existing decor.

If your frame does not allow for screwing in a hook for a sun catcher, you can use a self-adhesive hook for window glass.

You can find these hooks on Amazon or at your local supermarket.

Wall Decor

Stained glass flowers can also be used as wall decor. They can be framed and hung on the wall to add an artistic accent to a room. This is a great way to decorate a space and create a unique focal point.

For window hangings, transparent and semi-transparent glass is required, but for wall decor, opaque glass that reflects light should be chosen. These glasses have interesting and rich swirls, which will allow you to create an impressive room decor.

Display

You can use special stands or holders to display stained glass flowers. This allows you to move the stained glass around the house and change its location according to your mood or the season.

This way, you can easily update your interior without making major changes.

Popular Types of Flowers in Stained Glass

Cacti and Succulents

Cacti and succulents have become popular in stained glass due to their unique shapes and structures. These plants symbolise endurance and resilience, making them an excellent choice for those who want to create something unusual and meaningful.

This succulent pattern is designed to create a three-dimensional illusion. When I was painting the leaves with glass, I took into account the swirls and light and dark areas of the glass to achieve a three-dimensional effect. If you enjoy such challenges and love plants, this pattern will bring you fun in the making and pride after completion.

Sunflower

Sunflowers, with their bright yellow petals and large centres, symbolise joy and warmth. They bring sunlight into any space and are perfect for creating cheerful and vibrant stained glass compositions.

These flowers embody optimism and cheerfulness, making them a popular choice for stained glass projects.
