Vintage windows catch my attention every time. Our barn is full of the original windows from this old farmhouse yet when I spot them at a yardsale, I'm piling them in my car! I'm addicted. Remember when I did this post for vintage window ideas? Well, here are some more ideas from creative readers., Whitney and Katie. Click the links to visit the original post (send my love while you're there!).
A window frame from Whitney at Our Sweet Story...
Old vintage windows usually sell for $1 to $10 at yard sales, salvage shops, etc. Back with burlap, add precious photos and hang. Instant art!
I love this! I've been taking a lot of photos in my family lately. Must.do.this. Thanks for the inspiration, Whitney. It looks easy and it's a beautiful photo display!
Katie from Not Just Decorating had this clever idea for a menu board...
$5 window from Habitat.
This is 40" by 40" and fills a huge empty wall in her kitchen.
Total Cost: $10!
Window: $5
Picture Hangers: $2.25
Scrapbook paper and hangers: $3
Katie added hooks to the bottom to hang her aprons. Love the details!
Isn't that pretty? I love that it's functional and for $10 - a large statement on a big bare wall. Great job, Katie! I love the pretty paper and that it's also an really quick, easy, inexpensive project!
Editing to add this awesome Halloween project from Pattie at on HollyHock Farm!
