The pictures in this project are my absolute favorite pictures of my children. I wanted to do something special with them. We have this big empty wall in our great room so I thought it would be the perfect place to hang these pictures. Because the wall is so big, I knew that just hanging the pictures by themselves wouldn't look right. When my parents got new windows in their previous home, they were way ahead of their time and saved the window panes. I was fortunate enough to inherit a couple of them. I've used them all over the house in different ways. I love them. I also love my pictures. So, what do you get when you put a window pane and a picture together?
I had my husband staple the ribbon to the back of the frame. I then used an upholstery tack to hang the ribbon...
There you go! How easy was that?!
There is no longer a big empty wall...
Just the smiles of my children! (You can click on the picture to see it better.)

Love the idea - and you have such a beautiful family. I saw several old window frames at the Restore not far from my home, I think I'm going to back and pick them up!

ReplyDeleteChristy- I really like this idea a lot! My husband sells replacement windows and so I have access to hundreds of old frames.
