Show and tell of that bid, we won this past Saturday Auction.. The stain glass that has been a search for us through quite a few summers. This was the time for us to purchase.
This beautiful glass's history is....
In the year, 1853 a Baptist Church begun in a the town of Chariton. Worship was in a small structure, but not to the year of 1893 was the church that housed this beautiful glass built. It lived in this structure till 1963. The family who owned it now bought it at that time, because it brought memories of their wedding in 1947.
My Dh has been busily working on the oak frame for support to stabilizing the 117 year old glass. As you can see, the frame completed and it's final resting place.
We both plan on enjoying the play of colors and reflection across our walls and floors.
So what will we search for next?!
