Sans Soucie Art Glass creates custom etched glass pantry doors in limitless design styles and motifs, but undoubtedly their “Bundled Wheat” design ranks high among the favorites for a kitchen pantry door! There’s both a tall version of the design, with the wheat stalks tied together with a large bow, then there’s also a shorter version of the same style, aptly named “Bundled Wheat Petite”. Sans Soucie creates all their etched or frosted glass designs through sandblasting. The simplest and least expensive method is a solid frost, which basically means the design will be a solid white no “gradient” or shading. The other methods are much more difficult and require much more skill. To leran more and see examples, watch our Sandblast Effects Video!
