Stained Glass Favors

Matty, on April 9, 2018 at 5:35 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 13
I do stained glass and am planning on making the favors for ~90 guests. I’m looking for ideas for fairly simply sun catchers with just a few pieces. We’re getting married on Halloween, we’re a queer couple, and there’s a beautiful water view at the reception (with a full moon over it) and forest view at the ceremony.... so there’s a lot of themes we could go with... any ideas are appreciated!

    Could you just do a heart like this? Super simple and you can make many different colors, one color, or your wedding colors. Whichever suits your fancy

    I would do something simple and not Halloween themed so it can be used year round. Blue water with a moon over it?

    Cute but each piece/color adds a significant amount if time to the process. I’m hoping to keep them around 2-3 pieces. I had an idea and I may get pressed flowers an put them in between two triangle bevels. then engrave our initials (we’ll both be MK)

    I saw these and thought of you. So cute if you did one per household.

    Hi Matty! Nice to see a queer couple here! I just started looking at the forum so maybe there are lots of us but still happy to see. How did you learn to do stained glass??

    Hi Stephanie! Always wonderful to see another queer person on here. there’s an ok number of us here, not impressive but not terrible either. I taught myself stained glass! I bought some books on amazon and watched a bunch of youtube videos, but more than anything I just practiced a lot. It’s an amazing art and helped me out of a really hard place!
