I got a chance to explore the University Club in Detroit this morning, and my favorite part from the outside also turned out to be my favorite part from the inside; the leaded glass windows which are surprisingly largely intact.
This is the bay at the East end of the building, with a little replication just for fun.

Stickers put on the windows.
The new owners of the house kept them up.
Like the colours in this - noisy but taken hand held on my tip toes so can't complain! Waited for someone to appear in a window for a while with no luck...
Windows on Paris
While walking through Paris’ Right Bank I stopped for a moment to admire the beautiful apartment buildings and admire the view of the Eiffel Tower, located across the River Seine on Paris’ Left Bank (and as usual, I took far too many photographs!).
Happy Window Wednesday! 😊
Right Bank...
“Paris’ Right Bank, to the north of the river, is the larger “bank” and also the more traditionally upper crust. Back when the Left Bank was where struggling creative souls could find kinship (not to mention cheap rent), the Right Bank was where the city’s wealthy residents lived and played. Although this distinction is less applicable today now that rents on the Left Bank have skyrocketed, the Right Bank is still where you’re going to find the majority of Paris’ big businesses and banks – as well as most of the big tourist attractions.”
Left Bank...
“The Left Bank, called “La Rive Gauche” in French, is on the southern side of the Seine and encompasses six arrondissements. It is by far the smaller section of Paris, and historically known as the artistic part of the city. This is where many of the famous writers and artists who once called Paris home – including Picasso, Matisse, and Hemingway – once lived, because it used to be that this was the part of the city that was much cheaper. Those days are mostly gone, however, as the Left Bank boasts as many high-end apartments, restaurants, and bars as the Right Bank.”

“One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon-instead of enjoying the roses blooming outside our windows today.” ~ Dale Carnegie
Another from our fall trip to the Tetons...this was taken inside the old historic Cunningham cabin....how glorious it must have been to wake up to this sight every morning :-)
Have a great Wednesday....many thanks for all your visits!!!!
We stopped off for coffee and a scone yesterday, after a long walk at Keyhaven. It was so windy and the curtain was dancing in the breeze.
This is a glass mosaic on an old window that I just finished.
I used scraps from a stained glass shop, as well as beach glass and glass drops and an old glass jar lid.
