1. Above the fireplace

Here is a clean decor idea. This old window is simply leaned against the wall and used as the main decorative element.

2. In picture frame

Here is what I was talking about:a project full of charm! All you have to do is enlarge a photo to the right size, remove the panes from the old window, then paint it with a special wood paint and stick it on the photo. There you go, a nice family photo!

3. In blackboard

You can use an old window to turn it into an original blackboard with this special paint. Perfect for writing your shopping lists or jotting down your appointments!

4. On a coat rack

Here is an old window that has been hijacked to create a coat rack. A few hooks and a good coat of paint and here is your beautifully decorated entrance.

5. As a screen for the garden

Here, only the checkered frames of the windows were used. Hung on your balcony for example with a hook and a small chain, these old windows add a very pleasant intimate atmosphere.

6. In frames hung on the walls

The idea here is to use old windows as frames to dress the walls. I love this design! This style suits any traditional or modern home.

7. In the medicine cabinet

This old window is transformed into a showcase for a medicine cabinet. Here's a handy use of an old window!

8. Original headboard

This headboard is really original and in addition it is easy to make. Just collect 4 identical windows, strip them with this trick, then paint them. All that remains is to put small hooks in your wall to hang the windows on them.

9. Decorating for Christmas

You can also hang Christmas decorations like snowflakes or colorful balls on an old window frame. It's so simple and yet so pretty! It's quick to make and you can keep this decoration for a long time... and why not change it according to the seasons?

This antique window is housed in a door frame to embellish and dress up an empty space.
