You see it all began in the Fall when our church had a fall festival /Flea market type thing. Our Pastor had a table and was selling his wares... (Apparently he collects antiques) I eyed 2 of his things. One was an enamel top kitchen table, which my Mother bought me as an early Christmas gift : ) yay I L-O-V-E it. The other was this old arched window. It was so beautifully perfect to me with all it's imperfections. It had distressed paint 2 of the window panes were missing, but I just fell in love with it. I know, I know we shouldn't fall in love with objects but I just couldn't help myself. anywhooo He wouldn't budge on the price, so after haggling for what seemed an eternity, I let it sit there leaning against the table and walked away from it. Chipped paint and all. Thinking I would never see it again.
Fast Forward to Christmas Morning. My sister told me that my gift had gotten stuck in the chimney and I had to go outside on the porch to see what it was..... (she got me good I had not a clue that, that was my gift) I walked out that door and saw my perfect window! Thanks Beth : ) you are so thoughtful and I love you my Big sister : )
So anyway I have been trying to decide where to hang it since that day and then this morning I was reading my blogs and saw this wonderful idea! WHen I am done I will hang it in the dining room and post pictures! SO excited to get started. Not today, but one day soon.
