From Junk to... ART!! Old Wood Window: Vinyl, Wall Art, Graphics, Lettering, Decals, Stickers

This was a special request to give as a Christmas gift.

Before...
Scared ya, huh???
You were probably thinking who would ever give an old dirty window as a gift.  (As you can tell this isn't the exact window, but it was crunch time to get the finished project completed, so this was an after thought.)



After...



I absolutely LOVE how it turned out.  We sanded down the window.  Painted and distressed it.  Cleaned the glass, applied the vinyl, and viola!  Love, Love, Love!  The gold vinyl complimented the antique look and the hardware perfectly.  The saying is a scripture that reads...

"Organize yourselves, prepare every needful thing, and establish a house of prayer, fasting, faith, learning, glory, order, a house of God." D&C 88:119

  12. Thanks everyone for the comments. I love them, & I read each one of them.

    Nicole I made the tree design myself. If you would like to purchase one, I'd be happy to make one for you. I would just need to know the size and color. Let me know!

    Thanks,
    Tara
