The 3 girls and I went “Vintique” hunting for a few hours. I was looking to buy some sort of gaudy, intricate wall cabinet to store my perfumes and EOs. Instead, we came home with a modern chrome & glass X side table for the living room. (Pretty typical shopping pattern for me. lol. Next time, I’ll shop for garden statuary and find the perfume cabinet I want?) haha! Love the table, though!

Old Windows Repurposed As Art!

I’ll let the photos speak for themselves in this project where I repurposed old windows as decorative art for my dining room:

(The artist acrylic paints are Golden brand, purchased locally at Art Outfitters. The windows were purchased from Habitat for Humanity Re-Store. The scrapbook papers and Gloss ModPodge used to “frame/border” the art prints were purchased at Hobby Lobby. The art prints were all found on Pinterest and printed on my laser printer. See the individual prints on my Pinterest board “Beverage Art” for links to more info about each of the 18 prints, here. All of the prints are Beverage related, mostly illustrations and watercolors of girls and women with tea, coffee, or juice, since we have three daughters and these art pieces hang in the dining room.)

This is my second project using ModPodge and architectural salvage! Have you seen my CRAZY OLD DOOR? If not, see it hang above my bed in our Master Bedroomhere!
