So our major trip for the summer is over and the kids start school in less than 2 weeks. I am in the middle of a major hutch redo for my brother in law and his new bride. I have kinda run into a little problem and I am trying to figure that out. So in the mean time I was going nuts without a project and reading way to many books. I needed something to do big time!! I have a whole bunch of antique windows that I have collected and they are just sitting around collecting all sorts of dust. When I had the idea of turning one into a faux stained glass window. I had this idea that I was going to use beach glass from the dollar store to do it. Alas there was now beach glass at the dollar store so I picked up 4 bags of the round pebblish looking ones. As I was driving home from the store I started thinking about it and wondering if I should try something else. So after looking at a whole bunch of ideas now I can't decide what I want to do. I always like feedback and opinions so I thought I would throw this up here. I have at least narrowed down my ideas, I think.... Here are a few things I was thinking about doing. Please feel free to leave a comment and tell me what you think. I am pretty sure the window has lead paint on it so I will be dawning a mask and gloves and giving them a sanding on Monday and then I can't wait to get started.
Here was kinda the original idea, but I was thinking of doing some sort of pattern
But then as I looked at a few other ideas I kinda liked some of these.
