I did it! I finally
made a window of my own! Not too bad for a first try, eh? |
|
I am currently
creating pages on ideas for old doors, cribs, headboards and shutters. |
|
After accumulating about ten old windows (from my
neighbor's garbage), I have spent many countless hours scouring bulletin
boards and project indexes for ideas. I thought I'd combine them all in one
place, as it seems many of us are looking for the same ideas.
Please, please, please email me with any additional photos, links,
corrections, comments, etc., and feel free to share this link with
others. If you see a photo of your work here, thank you for making this
information available to all us other crafters. -Megan |

This hand painted window frame has a crackle finish applied and clear coated for protection. Also has hand painted roses. It measures 4 feet long and 1 foot 9 inches wide. The opening for the glass measures 8 and 1/4 inches by 10 inches. I have tried to ship these with the mirrored glass in them, but no matter how I try and protect them our beloved postal service finds a way to break them. You will be able to get the mirrored glass cut to fit for about 10 to 15 dollar at your local home depo or lumber yard. This is no doubt a one of a kind item. It would look great hung horizontal over a couch or virtical in a entry way or something. |

This darling old, 4-paned window has been turned into a coat/hat rack! It was taken from an old house here in Portland Oregon…and converted into a great cottage coat rack. It has been painted out in a creamy white color and then embellished with a gorgeous rose applique. Two double-hooks were also added in order to hang hats, coats, towels etc. from. Please note that this is a very old window…a shabby chic item…and may have a chippy paint look and other imperfections al well. Also note that one of the glass panes contains a crack…as seen in the picture. All in all…this piece measures about 40 inches wide, 13 inches tall and about 1.5 inches deep. What a stunning piece for the entryway…mud room, hallway, bathroom, etc. Either way…this darling coat rack is sure to be an adorable addition to your shabby chic cottage home. |
