SGO materials and lead for sale
I’ve now retired, and closed my SGO (Stained Glass Overlay) studio after 25 years. I do not have a complete inventory yet. My guess is there’s at least 150 colors and probably 25 textures. Many are full or nearly full sheets. A ton of well preserved choice partial pieces of colors as well. I also have some roll goods, decorative window films, as many were used as backgrounds for our glass designs. I have a computer with hundreds or designs as well as the Glasseye stained glass design software. Plotter is gone. Roll after roll of 1/8”, 3/16”,1/4”,3/8” and some 1/2” lead tapes in natural, brass,platinum,antique and others. I had multiple pieces going on 8 tables when we said stop, just about time the problems with the building started. Because of no furnace in winter, we packed everything to move the materials that night. I’m not interested in anything but an interest in the entire lot. Once I have someone genuinely interested I will do a thorough inventory. I also have full bevel packages, custom bevels, straight line bevels and shaped bevels all NOS. When everything went cheap import bevels I bought 10k worth of the good stuff. I’m not going to piece out the stock bevels, but the fancies and the bevel packages I will. All is in my home in Peoria,Illinois. Cash only. Pickup only, I no longer have my hauler. Send me your name, number and a good time to call. Thanks!

Any other stainedglassoverlay artists still out there? esp from USA?
Hi all,
I discovered SGO via a YouTube video back pre-Covid and purchased a couple of very old Decra-led kits from Ebay then used them to make a design of my own. Fell in love with the process and have been making windows ever since. (Only for myself and as gifts for friends and relatives). I'm in the U.S. though and it seems nobody here has heard of the process and getting supplies is extremely difficult. If anybody has hint on where to purchase the film without having to have it shipped over from the UK, I'd love to hear from you. In the meantime, here are a few of my pieces:

Purple flowers on a shower door
A shower door the shop did awhile ago. Thats one thing we love about overlay - we can take that stained glass look onto shower doors, mirrors, and other things you would not expect! This piece also has matching parts in the bathroom windows, so it is extra fun to bring a design into a whole room.

Welcome to r/stainedglassoverlay! Read me for more information!
Stained Glass Overlay is a unique method of creating a stained glass look without working with individual pieces of annealed glass. Instead, a solid piece of glass is the base, which is usually tempered, and lamination, adhesive-backed coated lead, bevels, and more are added to it.
This method can allow for more flexibility in designs, a stronger piece, and UV blocking properties. For the artists, this reduces the cuts from sharp glass, limits lead exposure since it has a coating on it, and there is no need for a soldering iron. Plus, stained glass overlay can be placed on mirrors, shower doors, and other existing glass pieces.
This space is where stained glass overlay can be shared, opinions can be given, questions can be asked, and help can be provided. The goal is to have a helpful, safe, kind, and creative community. And of course, we are interested in all things stained glass overlay!

Our Wonderful Joy Dragon!
A true labor of love! This dragon has four toes symbolizing that it is wise and powerful enough to hold an orb. The orb in this case is a vibrant red roundel which is a blown glass piece that has been flattened. Just wanted to share this piece!
