To My Kindred Spirits

To my kindred spirits who love old things, this is my "tribute" to old windows. I love them. I don't know why really. I am just drawn to them for some reason and try to come up with cool ideas to decorate with them. Here are a few...

I got this window in St. George and with a lot of persuasion, Tyler strapped it onto the roof of our car and we drove it home in a snow storm. It survived unscathed. It was from an old school house.
When I got the window the paint was cracked and peeling so I blasted the white off and got busy priming.

This is how it looks right now in my living room. It is still a work in progress. The bottom 5 panes are rock, the next 5 I used glass marbles to represent grass and then of course flowers (and if you know me, you know I love flowers!) and I have larger glass marbles I am going to use as the sky and sun. I am not sure at this point where in my house it is going to live because hanging it up is going to be a big problem. After adding all those marbles it now weighs a ton!

This window I got from the guy we hired to replace the windows in our house. He apparently likes old windows too and saved this one from a different job he was doing. I had a friend matte it and add the pictures of me and Ty. This one lives in my bedroom.

An old window from our house.
I have this one hung out on my patio and hang flowers and herbs to dry there in the summer.

I saved all the windows from our house and here they sit in my garage. I am waiting for inspiration.....

Another from our house. I painted it green but I am not sure what else I am going to do.
