Craft: Using an Old Window Frame

Reused Window Frame

Reused Window Frame

I was given this old frame, and decided to make it look realistic. I put a cut up poster behind the places where the panes were, and it looks like I am gazing out into a serene waterfall in the woods.

Some of my snail collections are on it, and for the photo, I would have taken them off. However, I have cats, and everything in this house is glued down! But, this may inspire some of you just the same.

I'm glad you left the snails in place. Everything looks so homey and inviting. Great idea.

I did something like this in a basement kitchen that had no window. I used pictures I had taken on my roses and enlarged them and put 1 in each pane. Another time I used a calender picture and had it enlarged at an office supply store. I never thought of a poster. Better than looking at a blank wall while you wash dishes!
