Catching the sun with bling for your windows

Katie Laird | 09 Apr 2012 | Seasonal Trends

As much as we love covering your windows, this time of year is perfect for basking in the Spring sunshine with your blinds and shades wide open.

Does anyone else remember painting sun catchers at summer camp to hang proudly in your bedroom?  Here are a few more grown up sun catchers that we like to refer to as ‘window bling’.

Sure it’s meant to be garden art, but how cute would it be to have one of these beautiful glass plate suncatcher flowers popping up out of a terra cotta pot on your window sill?

Hoot hoot – these hand painted stained glass owl suncatchers are tiny and cute – what a fun embellishment to even the smallest window.  Maybe in a bathroom or near your front door?

It’d be hard to not feel colorful with this fun rainbow stained glass window panel shining in on your morning.

If flowers are your thing, give them a permanent spot inside your home outside the vase with this beautiful poppy sun catcher from Terry Brown Glass.

What a cute baby shower gift this would be – a silly sheep suncatcher (also available in blue) for your favorite mama and baby.

Do you have a special way of enjoying the Springtime sunshine in your home?
