Interior designers and homeowners use Decorative Stained Glass Applique' to provide privacy and beauty. Both pretty and functional, these decals are for the person looking for alternatives to stained glass, especially for sidelights or bathroom applicatio

Decorative Stained Glass Applique''s are not new to the window treatment scene; however, they are gradually gaining in popularity as home design trends revert to more classical, traditional styles. Stained glass has been popular for many thousands of years, and continues to be utilized by the very wealthy in traditional or gothic-designed homes. With the rise in popularity of custom decorative window applications that mimic stained glass, homeowners are creating the same look without the exorbitant costs. Each application is custom designed and laser-cut , so they fit perfectly, the pattern is centered within the window, and the bevels look as real as actual leaded glass.

“People always want to know if they look cheap or fake. They are always shocked to see just how real they look. It’s very hard to tell the difference between stained glass, and these applique’s once they’re applied,” said Blinds.com Design Consultant Corrina Resa.

Decorative Stained Glass Applique''s are used in perfect arched windows, circular windows, transoms, garden tub windows, and front door windows. They are well-liked among people who have clear or frosted glass on their front doors and want privacy but not a large, awkward blind. Available in dozens of styles, colors, and patterns, there is one to accompany every color scheme.

“I’m so excited about these. I just ordered them for three of my friends!,” said Resa. “They create a depth and beauty that you can’t get from any other product, or any other type of appliqué. The way the light shines through these is just gorgeous.”

Truly unique to these decals is their ability to block light and increase privacy the way traditional window coverings would. UV inhibitors are integrated into each window film for up to 98% UV protection, helping keep out the sun’s harmful rays and prevent the fading and damaging of furniture.
