   Hobby Lobby used to carry stained glass.  Don't know if they still do.

   Somewhere around here I have about 50 lbs of stain glass that came out of an old church in central Texas.  paid $20 for it I believe.  Fun stuff to work with.   Not for sale, though.

   There are several mail order suppliers on the web, ie. http://www.delphiglass.com/index.cfm?page=knowledgebase

   Problem with these is you can't be exactly sure of what color and texture you're getting from the images.  If you're in the Atlanta area there's a large supplier I can direct you to.

   Terry,

   I do some stained glass work. I use Delphi for alot of my glass purchases. They have an excellent catalog and phone reps who can help you in selecting glass. 1-800-248-2048. The catalog gives a good general description along with a picture of each variety by manufacturer, it will give you a good start.

   The alternative is to check your area for a stained glass studio. The studios in my area all supplement their business by retailing glass and supplies.

    The size of the pieces you need may make it necessary to buy a large sheet through a studio and have them cut it, unless you feel comfortable handling and cutting such large pieces of glass.

   Hope this helps,

   Greg

   Thanks for the information Greg.  I live in Florida and checked with Delphi Glass, but they don't carry the size that I need (12" x 32"), so I think I'll have to try your approach of finding a shop that can cut from a full sheet.

   Thanks.

   Terry
