Upcycled Window Project...

I had a few 'extra' hours today and decided it was time to hit the 'project' pile.  

(You know what I mean right?)  

Had this old window that I scooped up somewhere for $1 I think.  

It looked awful 'before' - full of dirt and grime - 

and it had only 1 pane of glass.

This is the reverse side - after a good cleaning

I got out the creamy white paint and went to town. 

I kept the 1 pane of glass intact for a picture frame... 

...and backed the other 2 with leftover chicken wire from 

our chicken yard.  As always - 'ya use what ya got'.

(Tools needed were a tin snips, staple gun & hammer.)

 All the rusty hardware is original to the window - 

I simply left it and gave it a coat of matte poly.

 Not bad for a quick afternoon project.
