Abstract
A workpiece, the product thereof, and a kit, for making simulated stained glass works of art includes a transparent sheet covered on one side by an opaque scratch-removable coating and on the other side by a second sheet having transparent-ink patterns or solid colors. Portions of the opaque coating are removed to reveal through the transparent substrate, underlying transparent-ink patterns. The partially scratched product “drawing” produces an excellent visual appearance simulative of stained glass when held up to light. The finished product can be affixed to a window for continued enjoyment.
Claims31
A workpiece for making simulated stained glass art comprising:
- a clear, transparent plastic sheet substrate;
- a transparent colored sheet disposed separately from said clear plastic sheet substrate and adjacent to a first surface of said clear plastic sheet substrate;
- and
- a removable by scratching completely opaque layer covering a second surface of said clear plastic sheet substrate, said second surface being on an opposite side of said first surface, whereby said opaque layer can be partially removed in selected patterns by scratching with a tool or with fingers to reveal the transparent color sheet through said clear transparent sheet substrate.
A workpiece for making simulated stained glass art comprising:
- a first transparent sheet, said first transparent sheet have an inherent solid color;
- a second transparent sheet disposed separately from said first transparent sheet and adjacent to a first surface of said second transparent sheet, said second transparent sheet being colored;
- and
- a removable by scratching completely opaque layer covering a second surface of said first transparent sheet substrate, said second surface being on an opposite side of said first surface, whereby said opaque layer can be partially removed in selected patterns by scratching with a tool or with fingers to reveal the second transparent sheet through said first transparent sheet.
A workpiece for making simulated stained glass art comprising:
- a colored semi-transparent sheet substrate;
- and
- a removable by scratching completely opaque layer covering a top surface of said colored semi-transparent sheet substrate, whereby said opaque layer can be partially removed in selected patterns by scratching with a tool or with fingers to reveal the colored semi-transparent sheet, wherein, after the opaque coating layer has been at least partially removed, the workpiece held up to light creates an effect simulative of stained glass.

- and
- a removable by scratching completely opaque layer covering a second surface of said transparent plastic sheet, said second surface being on an opposite side of said first surface, whereby said opaque layer can be partially removed in selected patterns by scratching with a tool or with fingers to reveal the transparent color sheet through said clear transparent sheet substrate.

A workpiece for making simulated stained glass art comprising:
- a transparent colored sheet;
- a first transparent sheet disposed separately from said transparent colored sheet and adjacent to a first surface of said transparent plastic sheet substrate;
- a second transparent sheet disposed separately from said transparent colored sheet and said first transparent sheet, said second transparent sheet having a first surface adjacent to a second surface of said first transparent plastic sheet, said second surface being on a side opposite of said transparent colored sheet than said first surface;
- and
- a removable by scratching completely opaque layer covering a second surface of said second transparent plastic sheet, said second surface of said second transparent plastic sheet being on an opposite side of said first surface of said second transparent plastic sheet, whereby said opaque layer can be partially removed in selected patterns by scratching with a tool or with fingers to reveal the transparent color sheet through said second transparent sheet.
