I had this wonderful old window frame with raggedy screen and decided this would be the week to doll it up. I made the dream banner out of a grocery bag, some stencils, and paint. Then I hot glued them to a piece of twine. Lucky me the 2 knob were already there, probably used for taking the screen out of the window at the end of the season. For you young ones there was a day when the window screens were taken out at the end of summer and re-installed in the spring. Can you imagine? They had to be painted every so often and then stored. This little cutie has seen a lot of use and I am furthering her life by making her into art. I attached the vintage wire basket with some metal strap and screws and put screw eyes in each side to hold wire so I could hang the old pictures from it. I love this piece and don't want to sell it but I do this for income so good bye little wonderful window you will be in my dreams for ever! LOL too much? naw

Hi! What a great window project! I know how it is to fall in love with something you make, want to keep it and realize no, I do this for a living so must sell it. Oh well, the fun part is that there is always another "new love" waiting in the wings! I found your blog through Faded Charm's White Wednesdays and am now following!
