I am so excited that my old window is finally hanging on the wall!
I apologize in advance, the one day I finally remember to take pictures during the day instead of at night and it's cloud, overcast and cold. :(
I am kind of infatuated with it! I didn't do a whole lot to it, I sanded it down and painted it with white craft paint, sanded some more and then wiped it down with some black stain that I had in the garage!
And the best part is that I now how more room to decorate because the disgusting fish tank is gone! Here is a before. Blah!
Goodbye fish tank, hello window! Now I have an excuse to go to Hobby Lobby and buy more stuff to decorate with! I found an old trunk at the thrift store yesterday, I'm not sure where I am going to put it yet.
It's old and beat up, but all of the leather handles are attached, the two buckles work and even the 2 leather straps inside are still there! I think the main reason I really liked this one was the tag!

I'm not sure how old it is, but it looks old and I liked it! And I couldn't beat the price, it was only $10!

Ten dollars is a great price. Your window looks great.
Love the window!!
Great deals!! I love it!!! The suit case is awesome as well! I keep looking for items like that but not willing to pay the prices...
That's ironic! A friend of mine gave me 3 old windows they had laying around their shop. The glass is broken out of a few panes in each one. I'm not sure it can be replaced. Anywho, I just got one sanded and was going to paint it black and leave one of them white. And of course hang a wreath like everyone else (on the white one at least). Not sure what I'll do with the black one yet....COOL! Good job!
I love the trunk, and the window!! So creative. And definitely better than the fish tank :)
Love the way the window turned out!!! So jealous ;)
LOVE your trunk too!!!! Great find!
