My New Hobby...

So I found this amazing steal on Craig's List the other day, and I couldn't pass it up! This guy had 38 old, single, wooden window panes for sale. I had looked for some months ago, but antique stores try and sell ONE window for like $50! So I called him at 9:30 pm Sunday night and picked them up Monday after work!

I am going to make window art! I am kind of excited about it. I have a bunch of windows that still have the glass entact, approximately 25 I think. The rest are broken or are just the frames, which would be perfect for making old wooden window picture frames. :)

So I will be taking orders if anyone is interested. I have already printed off a few pics from the internet with ideas of images I want to paint on them (dandelion, chandelier, etc.) Just let me know if you'd like one!
Love,
Lindsay

Sounds like busy year already for you. I hope Zoie is feeling better now.
The windows sound like a wonderful project. Can't wait to see what they look like when finished. I'll have to check in again.
I love Zoie's Christmas photos. She looks like a super happy kid. :)
