Front Door Transom Window - Before and After

Here is my new leaded glass transom window

 that my DH put in during his Christmas holiday vacation.

We had this window custom made a while back

to blend nicely with the front door's side windows,

as well as the office windows.

We wanted everything to be as cohesive as possible.

I had a heckuva time trying to get a decent shot

of this part of the foyer area but with all the back lighting, along with the shaded areas - let's just say I tried.

(The important thing here was to share.)

BTW, this chandy is clean, but it is made of bubble glass -

 so with all the reflections and the bubbles it looks dusty!

 But it isn't...least not as much as it looks!

(:-p 

I took this shot standing on the stairs to get as close as possible.
The chandelier getting in the way was unavoidable. Sorry.

At least you get to see that too. 
It's a real day of sharing, isn't it?
Haha.

Here is an old bleh before shot looking in from outside.

(It's the only one I could find in the arsenal to show a before.)

This plain  window kept whispering to me:

"Please, please, please
turn me into one of those AFTER beauties!"

(And you know how we aim to please!)

All  our windows in this foyer area now have 

smooth bevelled, bubbled, and/or water-glass pieces.

It's not a huge change, but does it ever make a difference
in the morning with this East-facing window-
especially when walking down the stairs.

I think we came through for her.

She may now think of herself
 as an "AFTER beauty" don't you?

As always, thanks for your visit!
