All the windows of my heart I open to the day.
John Greenleaf Whittier
A dear friend was kind enough to offer me an old window she had sitting around her house and of course I snatched it up! I think my love affair with old windows is well confirmed. This one had the perfect amount of chippiness (is that a word? Spellcheck says no.) Anyway, I saw the size of the panes and inspiration struck!
I had my photographer friend Michael print out 6 of my favorite photos. After I got the photos from him, I added some glue dots (okay, like 20 per photo because they kept falling off*) to the backs and attached them to each pane. Easy peasy! When I get tired of the photos, it'll be a cinch to change them out. This is my kind of project...total cost came in at just $6 for printing the photos and now I have a creative photo display to brighten up our dreary hallway!
*I'm happy to report that after adding additional glue dots, the photos are behaving themselves and staying put!

What a cute idea. I love how it turned out.
Love the look of that, and if chipiness is not a word, it should be. Thanks for sharing the idea.
