I’m a big fan of Melissa and Doug, and this product did not disappoint. It’s well-made, and my little one had a great time creating it. It was easy to assemble, requiring minimal supervision after some initial guidance. We’ve hung it in her bedroom window, and it’s been there for nearly three months without the suction cup failing. While it doesn’t catch the light (the inserts are a type of gel), it’s still beautiful to look at. I would recommend this for ages 4 and up (my daughter is 5); younger kids might find it a bit challenging. It makes an excellent gift because it looks high quality, is unique and interesting, and can be displayed once completed.

We are huge fans of Melissa & Doug products in our home, and I can honestly say I’ve never been disappointed with any of their items. They are always of excellent quality and often have an educational aspect as a bonus.
These sets allow your child to place stickers from the sheet onto the main frame to create their own stained glass effect window decoration. The pictures feature darkened raised lines outlining the sticker areas, and the stickers themselves are raised, resulting in a spectacular finished product.
The Butterfly design set includes a frame, a sticker sheet, a hanging cord, and a suction cup, providing everything your child needs to create their stained glass picture. The final design measures approximately 25cm by 21cm, making it a great size.
This set has a simpler sticker layout compared to older versions, as it now mimics the picture, making it much easier for younger children to complete independently. I have purchased several of these “stained glass made easy” sets in the past, including the Owl, Rainbow Garden, Race Car, Mermaid, Princess, Unicorn, and Undersea Fantasy versions, and they have all been beautifully designed and fun to make. I appreciate that they are now creating more gender-neutral options like the Owl, Safari, and Dragon versions, and I hope they continue to expand their designs as we are hooked!
Once finished, the stained glass pictures look fantastic on a wall, but they truly shine when hung in a window where the light can catch them. This set is perfect for a creative child or to brighten up a rainy day. I’ve included a few photos of completed sets along with images of this one.

I purchased this for my 5-year-old daughter as a Christmas gift, and it was just right. She needed very little assistance to complete the window. The pieces are well-organized, making it easy for children her age to comprehend. They come off the film easily and adhere well to the plastic. It kept her engaged for a whole afternoon and is still proudly displayed in her bedroom window—the finished product is visually appealing and catches the sunlight beautifully. While it is a bit pricey for a regular item, it’s definitely worth it as a special treat for Christmas.

Big fan of Melissa and Doug and this didn’t disappoint. Well made and my little one really enjoyed making it. Was easy to do so needed little supervision after some initial guidance. Have hung it up in her bedroom window and it has been up now for almost 3 months and the suction cup hasn’t failed yet. It doesn’t necessarily catch the light (the inserts are a sort of gel) but still lovely to look at. Would say this was great for say 4yrs + (my girl is 5), any younger and it might be a little difficult. It makes a great present as looks good quality, is interesting and different, and is something that can be put up on display once made.

I bought this for my 5 year old daughter as a Christmas present. It was perfect, she required hardly any help to make the window. The pieces are clearly laid out, making it easy for her age group to understand. They are easy to remove from the film but stick firmly to the plastic. It kept her enthralled for an entire afternoon and is still on proud display in her bedroom window – the finished article is very aesthetically pleasing and catches the sun beautifully. It’s a little expensive for an everyday item, but for a treat at Christmas, it’s really worth it.

We are big fans of Melissa & Doug products in our home and I can hand on heart say that I have never bought one of their items and been disappointed with them as they are always great quality and also normally as a bonus they have some sort of educational slant to them too.
The idea of these sets is that your child places the corresponding stickers from the sticker sheet onto the main frame to create their own stained glass effect window decoration. The pictures have darkened raised lines outlining the sticker areas and the stickers themselves are raised so once completed they do look quite spectacular.
This Butterfly design set comes with a frame, a sticker sheet, a hanging cord and a suction cup so it has everything your child needs to create their stained glass effect picture.
The finished design measures approximately 25cm by 21cm and so it is a really good size.
This set has an easier sticker layout than older sets had as they are now laid out to mimic the picture which makes it much easier for younger children to be able to complete them by themselves.
I have bought quite a few of these stained glass made easy sets in the past such as their Owl version, Rainbow Garden version, Race Car version, Mermaid version, Princess version, Unicorn version and Undersea Fantasy version and they have each been beautifully designed and are lots of fun to make. I love that they are now making more gender neutral ones such as the Owl version, Safari version and Dragon version and hopefully they will continue with more designs as we are hooked!
Once completed the stained glass pictures look great even just hanging on a wall but they look brilliant if hung in a window when the light catches them. A great set for a creative child or even to fill up a rainy day. I have added a few photos of the sets that have been completed in the past along with photos of this set.
