Gothic Stained glass window that probably came out of an old church. We wrapped rope lighting on the inside of the window, put it on a wall switch and use it for a night light in the living room for the kids when they get up in the middle of the night and stumble into our bed room. Looks pretty cool lit up at night.

Thanks egreeley1976.
truly amazing... how much would it cost to buy one such.?
y3kanand thanks for stopping by, prices really vary on the window itself and the design. I looked for about 6 to 8 months before I find this one, at the price I could afford. I like the fact that this is a gothic style window and that is has the original wood frame around the glass. I hope this helps!
Very innovative idea to take a piece of history and make it useable again in a different way then it was designed for. Looks great on and off! Nice pick...
Thanks Bellin68!
