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.
ReplyDeleteLove the window!!
ReplyDeleteGreat 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...
ReplyDeleteThat'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!
ReplyDeleteI love the trunk, and the window!! So creative. And definitely better than the fish tank :)
ReplyDeleteLove the way the window turned out!!! So jealous ;)
ReplyDeleteLOVE your trunk too!!!! Great find!
