Stained Glass for your basement window can make a big difference.

Many Fort Worth homeowners get a quizzical look on their faces when we mention basement stained glass. We suppose that is not so unusual a reaction . . . if your basement is unfinished and filled with dusty, musty junk. But what about if you have spent good money finishing the basement to have more usable space in your home? What if you have an entertainment room, a family room, a spare bedroom, an office, or bathrooms in your basement? If you do, you probably want those rooms to be as lovely and comfortable and stylish as the rest of your home. Are we right?

So back to basement stained glass. Let’s discuss all the different reasons you might actually want it, from the ridiculous to the sublime. Of course, the stunning appearance of custom designed, hand crafted stained glass from Fort Worth Stained Glass is the sublime part of the equation. Adding stained glass adds beauty and elegance to any room in your house.

But there are a variety of other reasons besides the aesthetic ones to use it, and you get all the aesthetic benefits too. If you have basement windows with a view of nothing, you know how ugly they can be. And how ugly the views outside can be of window wells, grates, or the bottom end of a hedge.

But you can’t just cover them up and forget about them, because they provide the only natural light into the room. Now imagine walking down to your basement and instead of an awful view, seeing beautiful custom stained glass windows. What a difference that would make for the overall look of your basement!

Now, it’s also a well-known fact that adding stained glass to your home adds real dollar value, so you can add beauty, value, and solve the common design problem of ugly little windows with ugly views, in one fell swoop.

What about privacy? If yours is a walk out basement with a sliding glass door that leads to the street or even to the patio where your family hangs out a lot, you might like more privacy. Adding basement stained glass to that door, particularly frosted or textured clear glass, will give you a shot of privacy without blocking that all important sunlight. There’s nothing quite like a sunny basement, is there!

Honestly, there is absolutely no reason why you wouldn’t decorate your basement rooms as carefully and thoughtfully and beautifully as the other rooms in your house. Is there? So basement stained glass might be just the ticket to give your basement that does of beauty it has been missing.
