This month Eileen Esler of Leadlines and David Esler Stained Glass Studio is celebrating 26 years in business. Particularly poignant as this month the business is moving to a new studio, located beside the Landscape Centre, Donegore, Co Antrim. While the Studio will continue to design and make stained glass, it is also introducing workshops in glass painting for the general public as well as a new space for artists and jewellery designers to exhibit and sell their work.

A co-founder of the Women in Business network, Eileen is an inspiration to female entrepreneurs and potentials alike. She has continually re-shaped her business over the last 26 years in line with the changing environment she has found herself in. She was a 'Momprenuer' before it existed and is now re-directing the business once again in a time which is economically challenging and uncertain. Evidence of the determination and tenacity Eileen has possessed throughout the span of her career which began with £250 on a Visa card.

A visit to the new studio would be worth while for anyone interested in stained glass. Artists interested in exhibiting their works are welcome to view our studio space. Anyone interested in attending a stained glass workshop can find details on our website; the next course will be held on Saturday 7th November.
