distressed garden mirrored windows

16 years ago

By now everyone knows I like the scrappy look in the garden...LOL Anyhow....I decided to add mirrors to the window frames. One I left plain and one I decorated. I am not sure I like the decorated one for some reason.Somethings missing? It has three long panes so, I had to cut 12x12inch mirrors in half and there is a seam in the middle. That is why I had to put something there to cover up the seam. I should have used branches like paya10shn did they look better then the barbed wire I think....anyhow heres the pictures

this window hangs in my hedge. I really liked the mirror in it better then the glass so I am glad I re did it.

I love the barb wire on your window. Are the sunflowers metal? Love the garden tools too. I think I might want to copy that. Great job!!

Wow, Cindee, it looks great. I think the barbed wire adds to its charm! And what a perfect spot!

Love the garden bed also. Reminds me that I have to do something with mine.

I think the mirrored window looks great with the barbed wire and the garden tools. I like the other window also.

The barbwire and old tools are PERFECT, and the sunflowers of course. I love how it turned out. And a great spot for it, I can see why you preferred the mirror in it here.

no,no I love the barbed wire! I like both of them! That's a perfect spot for it,a nice bedroom window:) Now how about a nice little dresser or nightstand,with flowers growing in the drawers to go with it?? lol,it'd be just fabulous:)

Kudzukween, that's a great suggestion! Cindee, aren't you the one who created the "droopy drawers" sign and cabinet? Another one like that would be so neat there.

I love the barbed wire and the metal sunflowers. Like how you used the tools too.

Have you ever seen the wreath made from barbed wire? One of those might go with it too.

Those windows are down right AWESOME - I love both of them. You need to pat yourself on the back for making these excellent additions to your gardens.
