Leaded stained glass suncatchers for a sunny window.
A suncatcher is a small stained glass panel hung in a window so that daylight passing through it throws colored light into the room. Unlike wall art, it changes through the day: strongest in direct morning or afternoon sun, quiet and jewel-like the rest of the time. Love & Love YAH designs each one in-house, makes it to order, and donates 10% of every purchase to a Christian ministry, mission, charity or non-profit.
These are built with copper foil and solder rather than lead came, which is what allows the thinner lines and tighter curves that a small panel needs.
An east or south window gives the strongest color throw. Hang it away from a door that slams, clean with a dry cloth only, and never use ammonia glass cleaner, which will dull the solder over time. 10% of every purchase is donated to a Christian ministry, mission, charity or non-profit. You are helping the Kingdom of Heaven with every purchase.
East for morning light, south for the longest exposure through the day. Any window works, but direct sun is what throws color into the room.
Yes. Cathedral, opalescent, and textured art glass cut and assembled with copper foil and solder, not printed acrylic.
A chain and suction hook are included. For a permanent spot, a small cup hook in the window frame is more secure than suction.
A dry or barely damp cloth. Never ammonia-based glass cleaner, which corrodes solder lines and dulls the patina.
Hang it above reach. The panels are sturdy but they are glass, and a hard knock will crack a pane.
Yes. Names and dates can be sandblasted into a clear pane within most designs. Allow an extra week.
