Warwick's Stained Glass Treehouse Ornament
Made by hand in Bright, Victoria · the final collection
Six little treehouses, cut from real stained glass
Only 418 left – then the shed closes for good
“For 24 Christmases these only went on our own tree. Now I’d like them on yours.” – Warwick
“Every one of these is a copy of a treehouse that really stands on the block behind our house. I built the real ones with a hammer and the small ones with a glass cutter. The small ones were always harder.”
Warwick Tully, glassmaker, 74

The six treehouses – and who they were made for
The Fairy Door Oak
For Kiara, the first grandkid, who was sure fairies lived behind the round door. Green glass leaves, a little stone staircase and a fairy resting on the steps.
The Acorn House
For Lachie, who came home every autumn with his pockets full of acorns. A golden acorn cottage on an oak branch, with a balcony and two glass acorns.
The Snowy Pine Lookout
For Riley, who couldn’t work out why Christmas cards show snow when Christmas here is 35 degrees. Snow on every branch, a star in the window and a tiny brass telescope.
The Autumn Maple
For Matilda, born in April when Bright’s maples turn red. A spiral staircase winds up the trunk to a house in the fiery leaves.
The Twin Treehouses
For Archie and Pip, who wanted their own houses but hated being apart. Two houses, one rope bridge and a blue glass creek underneath.
The Moonlit Willow
For Lorraine, Warwick’s late wife, who read in her willow until the moon came up. Violet and teal leaves, a pearly crescent moon, and her seat on it.
How Warwick builds a treehouse in glass
No. 01
Cut piece by piece
Every leaf, window and piece of bark is cut by hand from sheet glass – amber, emerald, cobalt, violet.
No. 02
The church-window method
The edges are wrapped in thin copper foil and soldered together, the same technique Warwick used for 30 years restoring church windows.
No. 03
Seams that become branches
The solder lines aren’t hidden – they are the branches, the railings, the roof lines. That is what gives every treehouse its shape.
No. 04
A warm gold finish
A gold patina over the metal lines makes each ornament look like it has hung on a family tree for years, even on its first Christmas.
No. 05
Tiny details
A brass telescope, little lanterns, a fairy, a staircase that really winds around the trunk. The details are what people point at first.
No. 06
It glows on the tree
Tree lights shine through the glass, so the leaves sparkle and the little windows light up amber. Painted plastic can’t do that.
“Glass-look” ornament vs. Warwick’s treehouse
| Printed “glass-look” | Warwick’s treehouse | |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Printed acrylic or plastic | Real stained glass and metal |
| In tree light | Flat picture, no glow | Light shines through every leaf |
| Shape | Flat cut-out | Built piece by piece, with real depth |
| Story | None | Every design is a real treehouse |
| After 10 years | Print fades, scratches | Glass keeps its colour |
How to hang it so it glows
1Unpack it carefully and hold it by the chain, not by the leaves.
2Hang it on a sturdy branch, a little inside the tree, close to a string of lights.
3Switch on the tree lights at dusk and watch the windows light up. After Christmas, it looks lovely in a sunny window too.
Made by hand in Bright, Victoria
Warwick Tully has worked with glass since 1974, first on church windows across north-east Victoria, later in the little studio in his shed above the Ovens Valley. Every one of these ornaments was cut and soldered at that workbench, from the last sheets of glass in his rack. On 30 November, he closes the shed for good. His granddaughter Kiara keeps sending them out until the last ornament has found a home.

Questions people ask
How big is it?
About 10 cm tall and 9 cm wide, plus the chain. Big enough to be noticed on the tree, small enough to sit among the branches.
Is it really glass?
Yes. Real glass pieces joined with copper foil and solder, finished with a gold patina. You can see and feel every seam.
Which one should I choose?
Most people pick the design that matches someone they love – the stargazer, the acorn collector, the twins, or the Moonlit Willow in memory of someone special.
Will there be more?
No. This is the final collection from Warwick’s shed. When the 418 are gone, there won’t be any more.
90-day money-back guarantee
Hang it on your tree and see it glow. If it doesn’t win you over, send it back within 90 days and get your money back.
Care: This is real glass – hang it on a sturdy branch and keep it away from little hands and tail-wagging dogs. Dust with a soft, dry cloth. Store it wrapped in tissue between Christmases.

A message from Warwick:
For 24 Christmases, these ornaments only ever went on our own family tree. On 30 November, I'm closing my shed for good. These 418 are the last I will ever make. Every one was cut, foiled and soldered by hand at my workbench in Bright, from the last sheets of glass in my rack.
My granddaughter Kiara will keep sending them out after I lock the door, until the very last one has found a home.
When they're gone, they're gone.
