Repurposed window and Felt Love Garland

Wednesday, January 18, 2012

I got this window for free from a craigslist ad back while we were staying in Rochester, MN during Tim's Mayo rotation last summer. I had hammered out all the glass, and power sanded down all the sides of the window. Removing the glass definitely helped decrease the weight of it. It has a really nice crackled white paint look and this blue tinge on the top edge. Already has its own style which I LOVE.


Yesterday I pulled it out of my closet and added sawtooth hanging parts to it and hung it up on the wall. Found some heavier weight decor fabric and thumbtacked it to the wall.




As for the garland I was in the mood for some Valentines decor since it's coming up soon! can't wait!



















The hearts and letters are all made of felt. I sewed on all the letters rather than gluing it because I like the puffy look as it's all sewn in. I zigzag stitched all the hearts onto the ribbon.

I did this all during Kaden's and baby's naptime. When Kaden came out, he quickly noticed this and said, "mommy, that's beautiful!" A boy with a good eye I might say.
