Many guests ask about all the stained glass windows installed in the Shelburne Inn, Restaurant & Pub. David Campiche and Laurie Anderson procured most of the windows that front the building from an old friend who had imported them from Morecambe, England in the 1980’s. The windows had been salvaged from a soon-to-be-razed church. They are from the Art Nouveau period and their floral design and colors cast a beautiful glow in the rooms they adorn. Recently, professional photographer, Doug Plummer, photographed the large window in the area of the restaurant we call the “Inglenook.”
Others have found inspiration from the windows, as well. We were emailed a photograph of a replica created by a former guest, Stephanie Bergeron in her own home. Stephanie wrote:
I had a lot of fun doing this.It only took one afternoon and evening to complete– about 6 hours. It was done with Gallery Glass glass paints and the Gallery Glass Redi-Lead. It was done while the door was still hanging on it’s hinges in the doorway. 
I do have a bit of a stiff shoulder today…:)
Here’s her photograph of the result:
Co-owner, Laurie Anderson, with the assistance of her teacher, the late Barbara Wagner, created a needlepoint rendition of the stained glass window. Laurie has created needlepoint kits for others to reproduce the “window” to hang in their own home.
