FINISHED GLASS ART WITH CUSTOMER ENDORSEMENT
STAINED GLASS ART PANEL by Janice Fischer......
  
   Roaring Glory

Endorsement by Gloria Abbott:

"Roaring Glory" is home! Anyone interested in having a stained glass work done, contact Janice DeBucy Fischer. www.mirogegallery.com Check out her Facebook page, too! www.facebook.com/mirogeg allery She does excellent work and was in communication with me for the entire process of creating this masterpiece. We discussed details like what pose I wanted, colors for the lion, background, even type of glass she planned on using. I sent her a photo I liked and she sent me a preliminary sketch and took it from there! Very reasonable cost, too!

 

Stained glass maintenance tips:  To return the lustre to your stained glass art - buff it with some Turtle Wax on a soft polishing cloth. 

If your stained glass suncatcher has been hung using fishing line, the line should be changed annually as it loses integrity with prolonged exposure to the sun, and may break, causing damage to your glass art.
