About this Product
Stained Glass Mobile: Sun, Crescent Moon, Star and Planet!
Made to order!
Colorful, whimsical, unique! Great Gift Idea. Watch as it dances in the wind and casts interesting shadows.
Completely hand-crafted unique glass art. Packaged with care in a well-protected and sturdy shipping box.
The hanger elements are hand made using a sturdy silvertone galvanized wire (resistant to the weather if hung out of doors), glass beads, and clear filament.
I've included several photos to show the various pieces and the item as a whole, but feel free to contact me with any questions. (Note: Photo 5 shows a special order; buyer requested an extra star in place of a planet).
The individual pieces are created using the Tiffany copper foil method. They measure between 2 inches and approximately 4 inches, and with the hanger the piece as a whole measures approximately 14 inches wide and 20 inches tall.
I've used several different colors and types of glass and pretty glass beads as added embellishment.
~~~~~NOTE~~~~~This isn't intended to be hung above a babies crib, but instead to be enjoyed in a sunny window, patio, atrium, or under your overhang where it will be slightly protected in inclement weather.
Not for children. This is a decorative piece.
All of my glass pieces are hand made by me here in my studio work area in sunny Southern California. I take great care when packaging them so they will arrive at your home in the same perfect condition as when they left here. I allow shipping discounts for multiple items in the same shipment. Any questions, please contact me anytime.

Meet the Maker
I've been a Stained Glass Artist for 2 decades now, and I put a lot of love into everything I make!
A little about me:
It all began with a dream...
I'd always loved the way light interacts with stained glass, and dreamed of learning how to make pieces of my own. I had the opportunity to take a class when I was attending Cal State University, Fullerton, where I learned the basics of cutting, grinding, and using lead came to create some simple windows. Working with stained glass was now in my blood and I taught myself the Copper Foil Method of Construction by reading books. Copper foil construction allows me to create a wide range of pieces in both 2 and 3 dimensions. These include hanging sun catchers, business card holders and more for your office, candle holders, vases, hanging mobiles, and much more! While I do have many popular designs that I have sold for many years, I love to create completely unique pieces as well! I've been creating unique stained glass pieces for 2 decades and am thrilled to do custom orders; special color combinations or sizes to suit your needs. I've been approached to create completely new designs or sizes: for instance a large company asked me to created a bigger version of one of my business card holders to accommodate special cards; they ordered 43 of these in 2 color schemes to give as gifts to their employees! Another example: I once made almost 100 Peace signs for a customer who purchased them as special commemorative gifts at a memorial.
Custom orders begin with a need and an idea; together we can communicate to create a color scheme, pattern, size, and design to suit your specific needs.
I'm happy to include as much or as little of your input as you are comfortable with: I've found that some people want to give me some information and have me run with it, while others like to be very involved in all aspects of planning. It helps the process run more quickly if you'd like to browse through my shop and find colors and types of glass that you are drawn to.
My goal is to make pieces that are artistic, useful, very well made items that you are proud to own and display in your home, office or outdoor space! I sell many pieces that I can send directly to a gift recipient: Please include the correct shipping address at checkout and let me know what I can write on a note card. (Example: "Happy birthday Whitney! Love from your brother Nate"). I will have a gift-wrap option available at a nominal charge! I use a gift box to package the items; beautifully gift wrap with a selection of wrapping paper and add a pretty bow to finish it off; this package then goes into a larger, sturdy shipping box surrounded by bubble wrap to ensure safe delivery.
I'm very careful with my packaging, using sturdy boxes and plenty of bubble wrap so your special purchase arrives in the same condition it left my workshop.
Shop Policies
Welcome and thank you for visiting my shop!
Processing times:
In Stock items ship in as little as 1 or up to a few days. Many of my items are made to order, allowing you to choose your specific color choice or design. I do work on orders by the date received, so that the earliest orders can ship the soonest. Processing times are dependent on the item and the number of items ordered, and how many orders I currently have in my queue: normally it takes me between 2 and 10 days to complete a made-to-order item and get it to the Post Office. This doesn't include the actual time spent in transit. Please feel free to contact me if you have a specific timeline, if it is a gift for instance. I can give you a good idea of when I can complete your order! Like any online seller, I can't promise how long the post office will take to get it to you. However, in the 1000's of packages I've shipped over the years there have only been a handful of real issues with the delivery time.
Cancellations or Returns:
Please save your packaging materials.
I understand that at times you may need to change your mind and I am happy to work it out with you to the best of my ability.
To Cancel, please let me know within the first 24 hours and I can refund in full. Anytime after that, check in to inquire about options: If I haven't purchased material or started cutting the glass, I can happily refund in full. If I Have started, I will refund 50-70% of the total depending on how far along I am with the order. Custom orders however, are final.
Returns: Custom orders and sale items are final; No returns accepted! Anything else please contact me within 7 days for instructions. Give me a brief description of the reason for wanting to return the item. Using the packaging materials used in my shipping to you, please very carefully wrap each piece. If it's a card holder or other 3 dimensional piece, fill the inside with bubble wrap and surround it with more. You want to box to be full but not super tightly packed. It should not move around but should have just a little give. Try to keep the same amount of bubble wrap around each side of the glass (example, and inch above, below, and on the sides). If I receive your purchase back in the same unused condition as it left my shop I will refund minus the shipping costs. Customer is responsible for shipping charges both ways.
I appreciate your business!
