Client Reviews

Sally B

“Thrilled with my transom and window treatments. They are beautiful and provide the privacy I was looking for as well. Such a pleasure working with you and I so appreciate the responsiveness, decorating advice, and workmanship.”

Natalie M

“I am thrilled with my new stained glass in my foyer & my sunroom. It was a pleasure working with Diane & her husband. The entire process was very professional & I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to put stained glass in their home.”

Pamela T

“We added stained and leaded glass panels to our foyer walls for a pop of color and sparkle to create a unique look of stained glass on interior walls. We added transom glass panels to our living and dining room windows to match the entry door. We could not be more pleased with the results. On time delivery, clean installation, and personable service was included with the artistic design result. Highly recommend Decorative Glass Solutions.”

“This was no exception as to the quality you are more likely to receive when the Company owners are doing the work. We had two large Transoms and 3 small windows over our entry door transformed into a work of art.

We live quite a distance from Richmond, but Diane came to our home and helped me design the pieces. I was then sent templates for each piece and changed a few colors here and there.

They then traveled back to install.”

“2020: We have a sunroom that faces straight west, so the sun shines in directly, often right into our eyes! We have shades on the windows, but the transoms are not covered. Diane suggested patterned glass panels added to the transoms might help to diffuse the incoming sunlight. This has been a wonderful solution! We still have light coming in, but the direct sunlight is scattered now and doesn’t blind us. I’m attaching a picture of one of the transoms that shows the patterning. Thanks, Diane, for another great idea!

2019: As part of the kitchen renovation, we got all new cabinets, including one top set that had clear glass panels. We decided to go back to Diane to have leaded glass inserts made and they turned out beautifully. Thanks again Diane!

2017: We did a major renovation project that included gutting the entire master bath and kitchen. The master bath redo meant removing the existing window and moving and enlarging the opening. We went to Diane Fairburn’s Decorative Glass Solutions because we wanted something very special, and she had

a beautiful leaded glass window already made up. The problem, though, was that it wasn’t large enough for the opening we had. The solution? She created two leaded glass side panels that mimicked the pattern in the main window. Problem solved and the final result is gorgeous! Thanks Diane!”

“Hi Diane –

the fireplace screen arrived safely – it’ is absolutely beautiful – far beyond what we imagined!! The colors, the design, the textures of the various pieces of glass – make for an impressive piece of art! The height and width are perfect for our fireplace opening – a welcome addition to our living room! Congratulations to you and your team!

And, by the way, the packaging was excellent!

Thanks again!”

“A very enjoyable process from design to installation. The pace and follow-through in each step was excellent and made for an almost effortless process- not always the norm with creative work. The finished windows were gorgeous, and a dramatic upgrade. Thank you!”

Installations You Can Do Yourself!

Hello Glass Fans!  Welcome to our August Newsletter.  This month we are focusing on the customers who have installed the work themselves OR had a contractor do the install. We either shipped the glass to them somewhere in the US OR they picked the panel up.

Poitras Lighthouse was installed by the owner.  He made a template for us and installed this beauty in his home on the river.

Traditional King was installed by the owner.  They had a sunroom added next to their kitchen and had a window space to add this beauty!

Traditional transom was installed by a customer’s son.  She was looking for privacy as she lived alone and did not feel secure.   He was very pleased with how we made the process very simple.

Traditional wide border was installed by the contractor of a customer. This privacy glass panel was installed on an interior door to a bedroom.

Bird Heron Ross was installed by the owner.  It was a surprise for his wife, he saw this design on our website and ordered it for her birthday. WOW what a surprise that was!

Please send us pictures and measurements of the glass portion of your window or door glass and we will be happy to send options and estimates.

Thank You,

Diane Fairburn, Design Director

August 2018 Newsletter

Happy August, everyone!

Hope you are enjoying your summer!
We have two exciting installations to share:

The Traditional Grand Entry DeCarlo in Northern VA was an interesting solution to a boring entryway. The customer’s entryway had satin frosted glass that had been installed by their door manufacturer. We removed 4 of the largest windows, installed double pane insulated glass units and caulked our decorative glass in and Viola! The DeCarlo’s are more than thrilled with the outcome!

The Gary family in Maryland loves color and whimsical designs. They have a very large transom over their front door that we made a whole lot more exciting!

Let us know what we can do for you. Send us a photo of the space, along with the dimensions of the glass, and we will have a solution for you!

Decorative glass business does more than just churches

The work of Hanover County-based Decorative Glass Solutions is featured in new restaurants in the Richmond area.

Diane Fairburn started the business after graduating from Virginia Commonwealth University 39 years ago. The company was initially called Stained Glass Creations.

Fairburn said Decorative Glass Solutions recently completed installations in the Spoonbread Deux restaurant in the Short Pump area and in the Amici di Enzo restaurant in Goochland County.

“Some people think all we do is churches,” Fairburn said.

She said she has been commissioned by the Virginia Baptist Home Foundation to do a series of stained-glass windows for The Culpeper, a new residence home being built in Culpeper.

“Each window will be purchased by a donor, nine windows in total, from which to choose of various river, mountain and farmland scenes,” Fairburn said.

June 2018 Newsletter

Hello and Happy Summer to all!

We have been busy helping our customers with decorative glass solutions!

For the Gamble job, they wanted more light, and to remove the unattractive glass in the entryway double doors and 2 sidelight windows.

We removed the old glass and installed the leaded glass along with a piece of clear, tempered glass to meet building code.  As you can see in the before and after pictures , the job was accomplished!!


As for this next design, the Sharp’s had 2 leaded glass sidelights installed by the builder. The entryway also had a large, clear glass, circle top window.  We were commissioned to do a custom piece for that window. When an entryway has decorative glass sidelights, but the transom is empty, the entryway appears unfinished. By installing this beautiful window, they now have more curb appeal!  Most of the bevels shown were custom made and it is stunning!

 

 

What glass solution can we provide for you?  Please send a photo of the space, along with measurements of the glass portion of the window and we will be happy to provide estimates and options.

 

 

Testimonials:
