Endless possibilities with old windows

I adore old windows. So much that I have 5 repurposed ones in my home. Here are some examples I've done~
This one I made into a chalkboard/calender. I LOVE it! My kids LOVE it! I just added vinyl for the calender and taped it off and spray painted chalk paint for the chalkboard. I added a piece of trim to separate the two.



This window I made into a side table. I used it for a display for awhile in my boutique! We just took old spindles for the legs and supports, and added trim to the window. So fun!


I added vinyl lettering and berries to the old window. I also distressed the wood a bit to give it that look. This is hanging by my front door. Love!


This is an old window/door that I made into our menu board. It's super fun and helps me keep track of the meals for the week!

I've also made the windows into picture frames, memo boards, wreath holders and so much more! What would you do with an old window?

Make it Monday~

I love making my own jewelry. A few months ago I taught how to make Bird nest necklaces for Super saturday. The women and some of the YW loved making them. I made tons for Christmas gifts for my girls to give out too. Here is a great tutorial on how to make them from Sarah Ortega.



For Girls camp this year we did lots of jewelry. The girls loved stamping their own jewelry. If you live by a Harbor Freight their stamps are the best price I've found. I bought most of my supplies off Etsy. So much cheaper that way. Here are some fun ideas~

One more cute idea for DIY jewelry. We made earrings out of lace. I found that the lace on a bolt from hobby lobby worked really well and was super good priced. fleur d elise design has a great tutorial~
