Dragonfly Lantern
This Dragonfly Lantern is 11" x 6" x 6", comprising of 80 pieces of cut glass, glass stones and wire work. It is the perfect accent for a summer night spent outside, or a cozy even spent inside. Each of the four panels on the lantern, depicts a simple dragonfly of a different colour sitting upon a cattail. Iridescent glass has been used for the dragonfly and the wire work on the wings and keeps the dragonfly delicate. The lantern created using primarily transparent glass for the best possible lighting effect. This lantern sparkles like jewelry. The lantern has been photographed lit both with tea lights and with a small string of white Christmas/fairy lights. You can put it on a table or hang it on a hook - your choice! While stained glass can be safely displayed outdoors, I would recommend bringing stained glass items in during the winter, or during hail or wind storms. The lights and candles are not included. This is an original design. Each piece of glass is chosen with care, hand cut and the panel is then hand crafted using the Tiffany copper foil method. This lantern has already been sold, but I would love to opportunity to create another, or another like it, just for you.

Great service

Whether you are looking for something to brighten up a window or upgrade your kitchen cabinets, stained glass should appeal not only to your sense of aesthetic, but should ignite your imagination. I'll have done my job right when my glass sings to you.
You may choose from one of my pre-designed panels or I can create something just for you and for your space. All pieces are created using the Tiffany copper foil method and, when appropriate, are framed in a rigid, metal frame with sturdy hangers built in to each piece. Wood framing is also available upon request. As a special thank you, I also include hooks and chain so that you'll have everything you need to display your art.

For Jeff's Glass window for the front door at our lodge5.0I could not be more pleased with Monique and Dancing Light Stained Glass Studio. From the very first to the very last interaction - and there were many - she was outstanding. The first concept she put together was the one we chose and there were many opinions. Monique's written communications were extremely professional and fun. She is a very good writer - clear, humorous, professional, and very timely. I cannot think of one thing I would change and would use her talents without hesitation again and recommend her to anyone. Based upon comparisons, her prices were very reasonable. The packaging was bullet proof. Really, it was far more positive than I could have imagined. In the end, I have a product that I am completely satisfied with - what more could I ask for. Thank you Monique - you are the best!

For Pamela's Stained glass transom window panel (Oval shape)5.0Working with Monique to create my project was a dream come true! I've wanted a custom stained glass window for the transom space above my front door for years. I had a pretty good idea what colors and design elements I wanted to incorporate because I wanted it to match the new wallpaper that will be used for the surrounding space. I posted my requirements with photos of the wallpaper and waited for bids. Monique's proposed design was complete, professionally rendered, and delightfully conceived, incorporating the wallpaper colors and design elements with finesse. Once I accepted her proposal, we worked together to fine-tune the design's final color-way, and Monique went out of her way to supply me with glass samples and renderings of various color combinations so I could visualize the alternatives accurately. She was extremely easy to work with, focusing her efforts toward making sure that I had all the information I needed to be satisfied with the result, and demonstrating a firm grasp of her medium. During the construction phase, Monique shared photos with me so I could watch as she adroitly brought her creation to life. When the panel was finished, she packaged it securely in a custom-made wooden shipping container that weathered the US Postal Service's handling without a hitch. The stunning final product arrived perfectly intact, and is more beautiful than I could have imagined. I couldn't be happier to display it above my front door, it is a wonderful "welcoming" addition to my home. I am happy to recommend Monique to you, without hesitation, and plan to use her broad-range of talents again in the near future. I honestly don't believe I have ever received better customer service!
