Your brains must be working 24/7 on these fantastically beautiful creations!! Love this one!! -
Thanks for the creative idea. I have an old exterior door that we just decided to replace. I really like the door, so now I have options of what to do with it! -
Those look sooo good! So much more interesting than an ordinary coffee table or store bought shadow boxes. I bet you have a lot of other creations too! -
These are amazing! you're so talented! -

I'm assuming he uses the original glass. I am wondering about safety around children and pets. Have you had any such issues? Is it as fragile as it looks? -
Can you send your hubs to my house!! I've got some old windows just waiting for something cool like this! -
Love them! :) Great Green ideas! -
Christopher- yes, it's the original glass. It's withstood the weight of photo frames and vases just fine but I don't trust it around my 4 year old son, so I can't attest to the safety factor since it's not anywhere near him! :) I'd say no. -
Where do u find your winows?
-
Anita I have found them all over the place. We got a few at antique stores in Florida and mostly around home at Antique stores in Bham area. I go to The Blue Building in Alabaster a lot.
-
Love these ideas and I just found someone with old windows for $10 a piece!! Woo-hoo!!! Is the Blue Building an architectural salvage by any chance? -
Yay! Great find, Julie! The Blue Building is part antique mall, part interior consignment, part salvage! Hard to pinpoint what they are. They have all sorts of stuff in there!

Love the use of "old" stuff to make new....I have a very old part of a double hung window, wooden frame, flower decal,,,and I've turned it into a mirror using Krylon's Looking Glass spray. Amazing look!

Hey Beth! I was wondering if you have ever written on the panes of the windows? I want to make my daughter and her fiance a Christmas gift with one of the windows and wanted to write on a few of the a panes.

Love the stuff you do. I love looking at all the different things you crafters do. I have used a few of your Ideas to use in my apartment. I have been fighting Cancer Breast, Fibermyaliga, RA, Various health problems. But I love checking things out and do a little dabbing when I feel good. Thanks Crafty Farmer
