Last year I renovated my master bedroom. I went maybe a bit overboard with the red oak but overall I’m satisfied with it. One of the things I constructed was a large, built-in bureau which, again, I might have gone a bit overboard on with the carvings.

My next taks here is to finish off the house with five years’ worth of backburnered stained glass projects, one of which is the panels to the bureau’s doors.

I’ve got two options and I’m undecided which will work better. The first is a simple but classic crosshatched diamond pattern using translucent art glass. This wouldn’t compete with the carvings.

The other is a pattern I designed with GlassEye today. I like it by itself but I’m concerned that it might be too busy for this cabinet.

I can only post one image here so you can see the pattern on http://www.brooklynrowhouse.com/node/117
