Mosaic Window Redo


I love to take old things and make them over into something useful.  Here is a picture of an old 5.00 garage sale window that I made a mosaic on.  The glass pieces are marbles that I found at the dollar store and stained glass scraps I cut into square shapes.  The fleur-de-li is a plaster cast I made in sand using an old finial.  Painted the frame black and put a crackle finish on it.  It is in a morning window and when the sun shines in, it makes a beautiful pattern on the floor.  Get busy remaking old junk into wonderful new treasures.

Its So Very Cheri
