Ways to Customize Stained Glass for your Fort Collins Home
Whether it’s replacing old cabinets or updating your bathroom floor, you want to make sure that your renovations will bring out the best in your home. Adding a stained glass window to your Fort Collins home is no different. Your stained glass should complement your home’s architectural style and existing décor, amplifying its beauty rather than detracting from it.
The great thing about stained glass is that it’s custom made. This means that homeowners can personalize the design not only to suit their individual preferences, but also to make sure that it matches the rest of their home.
Below, we’ve described the various ways that stained glass can be customized.
What Can Stained & Leaded Glass Do for Your Home?
Before we discuss customization, let’s talk about why you should consider stained glass in the first place. Adding a stained or leaded glass window to your Fort Collins home will not only make it look more beautiful, but will also:
- Increase your home’s value
- Create privacy for you, your guests, and family
- Provide you with an alternative to blinds and curtains
- Increase the amount of natural light in your interior
- Conceal your belongings from strangers outside

That means they can be made to match a range of architectural styles, from centuries-old Victorian homes to the most modern craftsman styles. Here are some of the ways your stained glass can be customized.
