Flan's Glass was opened in 2024 by Flannery Thompson after she saw a massive need for a modern, accessible stained glass studio in Chicago.

Flan designs and fabricates bespoke stained glass with exceptional craftsmanship and a strong vision of dimension, texture, and color. She draws inspiration from nature and florals, bringing a dream-like beauty to any space.

We also support the stained glass community through a curated selection of glass, tools, and supplies. Flan carefully selects each product, ensuring that we have only the best options for both copper-foil and leaded artists and hobbyists.

Additionally, Flan’s Glass offers the highest quality instruction through hands-on teaching, encouraging local adults to explore creativity and improve technical skills in stained glass.
