I never intended to begin working with wood windows. It was a calling that landed in my hands by complete accident! Here’s part of the story…

My passion in stained glass has always been window building. I always said I wanted to build and install big windows into homes. The stained glass skills were there however the installation skills hadn’t developed yet.

Fast forward to 2024 and it’s Summer time at the store and the summer is typically our slow season (except this year we are incredibly busy 🙏 thank you thank you!!) I’m trying to drum up business because well we got bills to pay. 💸 I get this idea in my head that I want to do architectural glass windows. I begin researching glazing, glazier courses, researching other businesses models and so on. This got overwhelming fast. All of a sudden I need a work truck, a team of professionals and a clue of what a professional glazier even does. 🤷‍♀️ I didn’t put any action in because something wasn’t quite aligned but I mark this as the beginning. Six years ago someone asked me to strip and glaze a window in six hours and I failed miserably. But that’s a story for another time. 🤣 I mark Summer 2024 as My first attempt to enter into the realm of architectural glass … 🪟

The story continues when a client reached out and asked me to rebuild her stained glass window. I opened the photo she sent and it was installed into a WOOD FRAME. I naturally said yes even though I had no idea how I would get it out. I started calling people to help… I knew some people who worked in this industry but I didn’t really know what I was asking them to do for me. Guys, I almost rented scaffolding. I found someone to remove the window and I asked to watch because I was bewildered that this thing even could be removed at all.

After this, I continued to get jobs in that required glazing, frames and stained glass installed into wood frames. I began to seek education on wood window repair and a random ad popped up on my instagram for a Window Preservation Alliance workshop in Missouri(?) 😅 I bought a freaking ticket and went to Missouri by myself to meet a group of wood window enthusiasts?!

Fun at the torch studio! Each beginner artist made their very own mushroom implosion pendant. Topics include learning how to work the torch, pull stringers, gather the glass, stringer implosions and making a bail. All skills that they can continue to build on to create more fun and meaningful projects!

Current WIP (amongst many) in Toronto! One of our customers and friends, Fiona, invited me to help her with her wood window repair project. We unstuck the bottom and lower sash and made a game plan for our steps forward!

A throwback to building the transom window for our space at 32 Macdonell Street in Guelph.

Looking back on the incredible growth we’ve experienced over the past 3.5 years since relocating, it’s hard not to feel grateful. While our roots on Yarmouth Street will always be a special part of our story, it’s been exciting to watch Lucent Glass evolve into what it is today.

I’m proud of how far we’ve come and look forward to seeing the continued growth of the business, our team, and my own journey as a leader. Every year brings new challenges, opportunities, and lessons.

Most importantly, thank you to our customers. Your support, trust, and enthusiasm have made this growth possible. We remain committed to giving our best every day and continuing to serve this amazing community through Lucent Glass. ✨

🎤🫳 We teach a wide variety of workshops that offer different levels of skill building lessons. Our one day workshops are an approachable introduction to stained glass where our multiple day/week courses offer in depth knowledge on stained glass window building. We strive to meet the student where they are. We have found that some students prefer a soft launch into the craft while others aspire to larger projects. We are proud to cater to both as well as experienced artists. 🙏🤗 growing the stained glass industry, one workshop at a time!

#1 reason why people travel to Europe is cultural richness. Thousands of years or art, history and architecture draw people to European culture. People travel across the world to wander cobblestone streets, admire centuries-old architecture, and experience places that tell a story.
