In the beds surrounding our studio, flowers are harvested from early April until the first frost in October, pressed and dried, cataloged and shelved until needed. The bouquets are arranged one element at a time, using surgical tweezers, on one piece of glass. Each is signed with a small piece of Queen Ann's lace, then covered with a bevel plate, and bound with copper foil to secure. The stained glass border is cut and similarly foiled and all of the pieces are then hand-soldered together. All windows are internally braced with copper re-strip.
Primary flowers used are columbine, hydrangea, harebell, poppy, wild morning glory, and daffodil.
