I've been working on this project for sooooo long! I've had many interruptions in the process. . . had to wait for supplies multiple times and wait for ideas as to how to solve different problems and wait for help to hang it. (Not to mention I just don't have a lot of leisure time to work on projects.) But now it's done and I'm happy. When I got the window from my sister's neighbor it looked like this:
I knocked out the old glass, sanded it lots and strengthened it with glue and clamps. Then I painted and sanded it, added a handle and filled the frames with texture templates. (I love the look those add.) I got cheap shutters from Home Depot and painted them then distressed them. I would have liked the look of old shutters, but these look okay too. The shutters were taller than the window so I added a strip of molding to make up the difference. The wreath was the final touch. Looking at the pictures it looks a bit Christmasy, but in real life it doesn't seem to as much. So glad to finally have this project done!!!
