Here is a photo of a coffee table I made out of a window. I left the panes in, put in some old items, then bought a piece of plastic for the top. I bought some legs at a Menard's store.

What a great idea! You did a really nice job.
Looks great!!
It makes you feel good when you step back and look at it, doesn't it.

finally gave away but next time I will know what to
do, thank you.
Beautiful Looks like it could belong in a home deco Mag... :)

I love your table. How does the plastic lay flat with those items on the window glass? How creative.
How Creative! Really good job and a nice way to
recycle. We built a greehouse with our old windows
but have a couple around here somewhere. I'm
Thank you so much for the idea.
All the best,

Beautiful great job
Great Idea! I also found they work great as a picture frame for old family photos or new pictures made to look old using a sepia tone!
Cool idea for recycling. I really like that. I also like that you can put objects on it and cover them. Thanks for sharing.
I have also seen this done with a box with hinged "window lid" so you can store your clutter under and still see it.
What a great idea.... I love it. Could you tell me how you fastened the legs. Thanks Collettee

I have seen many cool coffee tables made out of windows. Here is another cool table which I find from robomargo . For more cool coffee tables, you may see www.made-in-china.com/
I did the same thing for our condo in Cabo San Lucas.
I also leave some space and tell our guests/renters that they can add to it if they want.
I have memories and treasures every time I look at it!
Very nice job! I love the color & gatherings under the glass. I took an old door with the window on top & cut it in half. I striped,scraped & painted it cream white, & I'm putting pictures behind the glass & hanging it up in my living room. The bottom half of the door will be a mosaic table. It has indentations in it -so I thought that would be good for mosaic designs. I need to buy legs or make some though. I will also paint that cream white. And I got it Free on the side of the road! : D
