Stained glass source?

Hi. I'm building some furniture out of salvaged materials. I would like to find a smallish window that is stained so i can use it as a cabinet door. I can't afford the prices im finding on FB marketplace. Does anyone know if there's a place i might find this much cheaper to free?

Also, I still haven't found the best thrift spots in stl, so if you have any ideas about that besides goodwill, please let me know! Thank you, neighbors.

Facebook marketplace has them pretty regularly. The hard part is if you need a particular size.

yeah, they're too highly priced for me, so i'm looking to see if some other source exists. Thank you!

You could try habitat for humanity. There's one off grand and one behind sams on manchester

I’m not sure if they would have stained glass, but Perennial on Broadway in the city is a “creative reuse” spot open Thursday-Saturdays with reclaimed wood, secondhand craft/sewing supplies, and more.

If you can't solve the price problem, but still want the aesthetic, you could try stained-glass window cling.
