We have a new "stained glass" front door! This one is made with contact paper and flower petals and may be my favorite yet. I love it! The front door window is our big spot for displaying seasonal changes in art and decoration. Until yesterday we had this big scribble stained glass up, which I still think is awesome, but the flower petal stained glass is just so fresh and cheerful!
Arranging the flower petals and leaves on the contact paper was both fun and relaxing. I did most of it, although that wasn't my intention; I had the contact paper set out as an after-school project. Maia had a friend over, though, and they were in play mode not art mode. Which was fine. Rather blissful, in fact. Daphne hung out on the fringes of the big kid action while I created flower mandalas and other designs.
We all love our new stained glass door!
Maybe in a week or two when these flowers fade, we can all sit down and create some new flower petal stained glass together. Or maybe I'll have the pile of flowers to myself again...
P.S. You can see all of our many stained glass door versions here, as well as lots of other stained glass and suncatcher crafts.
