Where? How large? Could you photo please?
The simplest way to hang a stained glass panel is to attach some hooks to the existing framework of the window and hang the stained glass with wire or chain.
Screw in o hooks to wooden part of window, add thin wire to each end depending on how far down you want window to set. Apply o hooks to wall and thread wire thru. Stabilize wire to hooks on wall by twisting ends together.
Contact a local stained glass shop... and ask them... We have 2 one has a wood frame and one just has the metal "came" that holds the glass together.... The first one came with "eye screws" screwed into the wood frame... it hangs from 2 chains screwed onto the large window frame where the window hangs.... the 2nd... I had the stained glass shop solder a loop of heavy wire onto the outer edge of the "window". Then I used 2 hardware clips (kind of like on a dog leash) to attach a chain... and again screwed the chain to the window frame.
Hang wire on the wall close to where ceiling and wall meet. First measure how far you want window to hang down then secure hooks/wire on o hooks.
