Lots of nice floral projects

This book has lots of doable projects. I would classify the skill level as beginner to intermediate, but be prepared to come up with you own color schemes because there are no photographs of completed projects.About 95% of the patterns have floral themes: lots of tulips, roses, lilies and other generic flowers. There are also a few pattern with women's profiles, two peacocks, a fish, and a very impressive butterfly pattern (I have seen this one for sale at the auction sites several times). All-in-all this book would be a nice addition to your collection.

Art Nouveau Stained Glass Pattern Book

This is a great book..as long as you have a good grasp of the relevant colors and at least a little experience with the whole painting on glass idea. The patterns are wonderful and very reminescent of a lot of the fabulous work seen in the art deco period hotel windows and in older tiffany glass. There are some wonderful projects even for more or less beginners, although I would not class these projects as "starter projects". But heck its only paint and glass basically so if you make a mess...start over!
