Large Window Pane Wall Art...need INEXPENSIVE ideas
+36
***I'M ADDING THIS A FEW HOURS LATER BASED ON ANSWERS I'VE RECEIVED. I WANT TO PUT UP ONLY ONE PIECE, NOTHING MORE. I LOVE THE IDEA OF SEVERAL THROUGHOUT THE PANES BUT I WANT ONE PIECE BEHIND THE 2 WINDOW PANES. TY
Oh please help! I'm new on this site but am loving it! My family and friends think I'm completely addicted and they're right! I'm saving a ton of money 
I found the window pane wall art idea on here of course and fell in love with it as I live in the country...it really fits. We've been here 4.5 years and have never decorated this very large wall
When I saw the idea I knew that was it. Bought 2 each 40"x44", 12 panes each. The total length is 84". I do not want to put art/pictures in each pane, rather, I want one mural, landscape piece of "art." In my photo you can see the shower curtain I bought which was not the size as advertised. This is the exact idea I want however. I am open to still using it if any of you have ideas of what I can add to fill 7" on each end. The shower curtain is 70". I did think of cutting it in half (to lose that 4.5" where they meet at the center), but with that size at 35", it would still need additional material at the ends. I am open to any ideas hoping they are extremely inexpensive and fit my thoughts of one scene.

PS~Yes I plan on cleaning these and staining the white at bottom. I was so jazzed I had to see them on the wall!
I saw a great idea which used black and white historical photos in each pane:)
you can add photos! I have one like this in my bathroom and I have black and white 8x10 photos on it and it looks great -use old post cards, or book pages too
I had a similar issue where I could not find the correct width picture that I wanted. I ended up using a different patterned fabric and made a sort of "matte" for the picture. You could glue or sew pieces on each side to fill out the space. What about just a neutral blue from the color of the water in your shower curtain?

Hi Kariln. You could purchase some texture scrap book paper to fill in on both sides. They offer so many pretty organic looking ones.
I would cut it into 3 equal pieces. Space them out so you have an equal gap between each panel. Fill the gaps with strips of frosted or plain mirrors or mirror tiles.
Could you make it into a shadow box and change it out with the season?
This site has some incredible natural wall tapestries that would be more than big enough behind your window.... and cheap... https://www.twinkledeals.com/wall-tapestry/wall-hanging-art-decor-forest/p_1039964.html they are polyester fabric you can staple on the back of frame.
Q
Have you considered using the hombre effect with color? Starting out with dark and fading down to lightest color. I think it would quite beautiful.
So...you want to put one large scene behind the...oh wait...brain is waking...SACRE BLUE! Window panes, outside scene...now I get it..what a clever idea..😊
really exellant 👍🏻🌹👏
I love the bridge on the water 😃 I live on the Ohio river with a dock. On that website did you see any that were of the sun setting/rising on water? From my own view, I noticed that as the sun reflects on the water around the dock there is a kind of glare/haze that surrounds the dock. If you can find one where the sun is shining on water or even a fog? Cut it to attach to both sides of your bridge curtain? Good luck 🤗

I see what you're going for, and I think it's a great idea! However, if your budget is as tight as mine, buying an exact fitting piece
might not be an option. I had the thought that, if it measures out well, you could fussy cut the shower curtain into rectangles to exactly fit each window pane. You'd have to measure very carefully before cutting! It might make a little bit of optical illusion while at the same time be hinting at a bargello-style quilt.
Maybe you could mark off the frames on the wall, cut the curtain to measure and attach it to the wall. Perhaps try attaching it to a thin piece of cardboard with double stick tape before attaching to the wall.
I'm going to miss you, Kariln The Country..I love your exuberance..
You could purchase a 2nd shower curtain, exactly the same. Cut the sides for the edges you need. So that it will look like it all blends. You can use fabric glue if the curtain is fabric. Or sew the new sides to the original curtain. Hope this helps you.
🌹see you soon 😇
thank you for your lovely message
