How can I upcycle old storm windows?

We have glass storm windows - the kind that hook over top of the windown screens and then latch on each side. We are getting windows replaced. What would be a good use for the old storm glass windows?

Hi, Cec!
The windows would make great "walls" for a small greenhouse... Wood framing can be built based on the size of the windows, then the windows can be attached to the sides and top (as a roof). This link to Pinterest has tons of greenhouse ideas! I hope this helps!
