Windows

My friend Sherri asked to see how I display my antique window layouts in my home and since she lives in Canada and I live in Texas, she can't just come by and visit (although I'd love that).

So here they are. The first one is the one I did several years ago. It hangs in the back of our living room in my scrap area.

Next, the single pane window that I just use as a frame for one of my favorite senior pictures of Kat.

And last the collection window of Kat's senior pics (http://scrapsandsnippets.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html) It hangs above the sofa.

I have one more of these saved back for Archie's senior pics. It'll keep for a couple of years.

Antique Senior Window

Hmmm...that sounds like the senior is antique, not the window, but you get the idea. This is a window we found at an antique store a long time ago. We had to replace glass in 5 of the panes, but it was worth it. I tooks some of the lovely photos of Kat taken by Christa Holland (see link to the right for more of her fabulousness) and made a layout with each. Then I put them on some cardboard (no, not acid, free, but neither is an antique window.) Oh and Lori, two of the cardboard pieces have your mailing address, from our last CJ. LOL. This is the second window like this I've done. The other is here:  http://www.scrapjazz.com/myjazz/index.php?mod=galleries&u=20907&m=view&id=415311&start=160&page=1.

 

Each pane has it's own theme, but they're all on vintage style papers. This will be hanging above my sofa. I have another window to fill for Arch in two years. I'm looking forward to that.

And now to finish rearranging all the stuff in the living room so this fits....
