Creating and working with
stained glass has become a very
new and interesting hobby for
Mrs. Constance Person, English
teacher.
Two arched windows en
circling her fireplace gave
her the idea to originate
something ne^y, to keep the
public from peeping inside
and to add an intriguing
touch for her own enjoy
ment and that of visitors.
After many hours of planning
possibilities of covering her win
dows, without using curtains,
she arrived at the conclusion
that she and her husband would
set out to purchase some stained
glass. “And that is when the
work began,” she said.
Time was spent searching
through the yellow pages of
the telephone book, “when
I finally came across a man
who had contact with a
church where I could pur
chase some true Cathedral
glass.”
After purchasing the glass,
Mrs. Person became very anx
ious to begin work on her proj
ect.
“I just couldn’t wait for my
husband, I had to begin.”
Assuming that the glass
would be easy to break, she
proceeded to cut it in the
usual manner by tapping it
and waiting for it to break
along the cutline, “needless
to say, it didn’t,” she said.
“Later I found out that in
order to break the Cathedral
glass, one must put all his
weight upon the glass cutter. I
wish I would’ve learned this
earlier, because I wasted piles
of precious glass,” she said.
After Mrs. Persons husband
returned, they plunged into
MRS. CONSTANCE PERSONS’ hand-made stained glass win
dow adds intriguing touch to her living room.
work, transforming two ordinary
windows, creating a pleasant at
mosphere, and they also have
designed a fence, located in their
back yard with stained glass on
it. The fence is cedar slats at the
bottom, with stained glass dec
orating the top. The glass is
rather expensive however; for
one square foot of red stained,
it costs $2.
“I really love the glass; it’s
fabulous,” she stated, but my
best advice to give would be;
“to have a handy can of band
aids within reach.”
