Sunday Sweets: Stained Glass

"Color is to the eye what music is to the ear."

- Louis Comfort Tiffany

What does "stained glass" make you think of? Church windows? Fancy light fixtures?

How about gorgeous cakes?

Ooh la la! So soft and pretty; I love the watercolor feel to those colors.

This cake practically glows, it's so vivid. And I like how the flowers are mirrored in the artwork.

I can't imagine the time it took to pipe and paint even one of these layers, much less four.

These cookies look like sun catchers! Doesn't the blue background look like a cloudy sky showing through?

One of my personal favorites today! There's a great little Tiffany museum here in Florida, and this one reminds me the most of some of his windows there. Something about all those glowing greens and rich orangey-browns... Just lovely.

Both are amazing, but that blue! WOW.

Perhaps more of a mosaic than stained glass, but I'm blown away by the 3D flowers! Such a great design.

And another tile mosaic:

So much detail! Can you imagine how long it would take to place all those tiny pieces?!

These flowers look like they're bursting out of the glass design:

So. Cool.

I take it back; I think this is my favorite. The balance of dark and light, the perfectly blended colors, that butterfly...! It belongs in the Tiffany Museum! Or my belly. One of the two, anyway. ;)

Hope you guys enjoyed! Happy Sunday!
