Happy Holiday Weekend..

Celebrating Easter this weekend with family... a lot of food...too much food...I did not go for a swim this year like last year..even though the weather is actually warmer...just could not get into the lake.  My record -for the first swim- was broken by my six year old...never a dull moment.  Tomorrow will be more celebrations with Easter Sunday..more great food and of course lots of chocolate. Wishing everyone a Happy Easter//Passover///Holiday weekend.

Here is a photo of Friday install.

NICE....

Today I polished up panels for the site in Oakville.  Beautiful panels..classic style....custom beveled starphire glass, Drawn antique from Germany, 50mm jewels in clear that are surrounded by more custom pieces of beveled starphire.  Everything clear beyond clear..no green reflection like in North American Glass.  Stunning..and then all electroplated so that the metal is a  black finish.  That is for tomorrow...total of 10 panels.


Tomorrow's day will start early and finish early...hopefully...FRIDAY!!!  Saturday I am playing in a "card tournament..." Here are pics of the windows...

One more complete...

Yesterday I installed the copper foiled transom and door lites that were completed last week...Every project looks so much better once they are unstalled..maybe because they are in the "home" that they were designed and created for. 

Today is just Tuesday and I already am thinking of taking Friday off...We will see how the week goes.
Have a good one!

long day at studio...continues tomorrow!

Complete one project and start another...today was a productive day...although I did spend the day admiring the Henry Street Transom.  Inspired from a fabric sample that the client provided...this shows once again that anything is possible..with enough thought...Tomorrow I am back at studio hoping to complete..oh..3 or maybe 4 door lites...I will let you know!

Than the exterior signage was put up!!!

and i was even able to get a "little" work done...but I have to admit I was bouncing around the shop all afternoon...I am still smiling!

First the table arrived!

Had to take the doors off the entrance to get it in...

Wednesday April 6th..

Nice sunny day this morning.  Thought there was a chance maybe exterior signage today...but no (just received the let down by email.)  Oh well....I really don't know why I am so excited about seeing my studio name posted on a building...  Today I am back down at One Bedford in TO.  Finishing up project.  At the studio the Victorian Stained Glass Transom is looking great.  Very excited about the colors!

This  afternoon I am at my silverers to work on some more samples with them...

tonight I have to work on some artwork for clients as I am falling behind on that front....but good news yesterday...I think I have found someone to help me at the studio.  A previous student of mine who is just what I am looking for...I really hope this works out....It would be great!
