Neile Cooper's Stained Glass Cabin (Sparta/ New Jersey)

Neile Cooper's Stained Glass Cabin (Sparta/ New Jersey)

Artist Neile Cooper sells hand made stained glass item on etsy and this is her studio cabin for which she crafted stained glass walls and ceilings that catch the light beutifully.
It lies nestled in the pine and maple trees behind her home on a quiet residential street in Sparta, New Jersey.

Neile became a stained glass window maker but when the recession hit and the work dried up Neile instead decided to make jewellery.
“Part of the inspiration for doing this cabin was that I missed doing large scale work," she says. "I wanted a big project that I could really immerse myself in. If no one was going to hire me to make windows, I would just make them for myself.”

Lucy the Elephant (Margate/ New Jersey)



Lucy the Elephant is located along the beach in Josephine Harron Park in Margate, NJ. The 6 story landmark was originally created in 1881 in an effort to sell real estate and attract tourists.
Today, Lucy really is a tourist attraction. Guided tours take visitors into the building through the spiral staircase in the left rear leg up into the interior, then up again into the howdah to see views of Margate, the Atlantic City skyline, and the Atlantic Ocean.
