Favorite things: A unique stained glass window


An old farm window and box of broken stained glass pieces from the N.C. State Flea Market are Becca Smith’s prized possession.

In 2004, I was at the flea market at the N.C. State Fairgrounds and I picked up this old farm window along with a box of stained glass broken pieces. I ended up putting them together and came up with this unique creation. Our house has a window that looks out onto our back sun porch. I hung this stained glass window there as way to provide some privacy but still add light and visibility. We love this piece and everyone who comes to our house always comments on it.
