Blue Monday: Stained Glass

It's Blue Monday time again! To join in the fun visit Smiling Sally and sign in. Have fun!

My Blue Monday contribution for this week is the stained glass creation I have hanging in my entry way. I looked and looked and finally found something that fit this window perfectly. The blue glass in this artwork is very beautiful to me. I hope you like it, too.

Let's don't forget to post something PINK for breast cancer awareness all through the month of October. I have added the button that sponsors free mammograms, so now I can click it everyday right here on my blog. Good thinking!

That is a beautiful stained glass window! I have never seen anything quite like that. Stained glass is something I'd love to learn to do someday too if I could. The colour and the detail is lovely. Thank you for sharing your treasure on Blue Monday!

Constance said...: I love the stained glass! When we build our retirement cabin, I want to have a piece of art like that in it!

Thanks for stopping by my S&T on Friday and leaving a comment. My Hub had the computer tied up all weekend working on his photos from our recent vacation so I have been "out of pocket" and unable to comment!

Have a fabulous day today!

I bought two years ago to my grandchildren stained glass angels.
I have a post about that Christmas market two years ago:
