PURCHASING MULTIPLE ITEMS? ~ I will package items together whenever possible to save on shipping costs, and refund the difference, or if you contact me in advance I will calculate exact shipping costs and adjust before purchasing. I can usually ship two or more sun catchers for about the cost of one! The system doesn't do this automatically unfortunately. Items must be purchased together in the same cart for this to apply.
***CANADIAN SHOPPERS: My prices now include GST/HST tax as per new tax regulations July 1, 2022. GST/HST is included in the price you see, and will not be charged at checkout.
*I can ship gifts directly to the recipient, and offer optional gift wrap.*
I design and hand craft original stained glass works of art. Each piece is my own creation, and I incorporate a 3 dimensional aspect to many of my pieces, which in my opinion brings the glass to life. Please browse my shop to discover unique home and garden decor and gift ideas.
I have been creating stained glass for over 27 years now, and feel truly blessed to be able to spend my days doing what I love. I am always amazed at the way different lighting plays with the colors of the glass, and love being able to take a sheet of glass, or more correctly many sheets of glass and turn them into something to be enjoyed for many years to come. I typically use crystals and rhinestones to embellish my stained glass creations to add extra interest and bling. Basically.......I love anything that sparkles, and have been told I must have been a crow in a past life. I feel so very lucky to be able to spend my days creating beautiful items that incorporate wonderful combinations of glass, crystals, rhinestones, faceted jewels and or bevels, and take them wherever my imagination leads me! I have always found I have more ideas than time, and my favourite moments are when I get to "play" with an idea I have tucked away in my memory, and to experiment with it until I feel I have it just right.
I work in the copper foil method, commonly called the "Tiffany" method of stained glass. I hand cut each piece of glass, grind, wash, rinse, and dry them before wrapping each individual piece with an adhesive backed copper foil strip. This foil is hand rubbed or "burnished" onto the glass and then solder is applied to act as the glue that holds the pieces together. Once the glass is soldered it is meticulously cleaned, polished, and any embellishments are added. On some of my work, panels in particular, I apply a chemical to the solder that changes the colour of the solder to either black or copper.
I would be happy to answer any questions you may have about my product, or the process I use to create my artwork.
Thanks for visiting!
Wendy

5 out of 5 starsI am blown away. Thank you. I bought this for a client who had a stillborn in July. We are memorializing him this weekend and this is the perfect gift. They see dragonflies in his memory, I know they will be taken aback by how beautiful this gift is. Thank you so much. This means a lot to us.

About BayCreationsbyWendy
What began as a beginners class in 1994 soon blossomed into a passion and a business. I gradually cut back on my "day job" to work full time on glass

I am blessed to live on a small off grid island off the coast of Vancouver Island, B. C., Canada. I have a small studio where I create all my pieces of stained glass and jewellery.
