I have been pretty open about my antique window addiction. I just can't seem to get enough. It's borderline ridiculous to outsiders, but I know you will totally get it. And if you follow me on my facebook page
you saw the old windows I found completely by chance this week on Craigslist for $60. A little miracle considering the price of these on ebay. Ouch!
I decided to just prop up my favorite one on my entry table and make a few changes in here.
I wanted to do a simple floral thing. But I was tired of using the same vases, buckets and containers. I thought it would be neat to fill up my huge white bowl.
It's hard to tell scale in pictures, but this bowl is really really huge.
But isn't it so special that someone took the time to sew the cover of this antique school book back on long ago?
I've also been making a few changes to the master bedroom. Here's a sneak peek before the reveal...
I hope you are having a wonderful day my friends!

So serenely beautiful. The windows are an awesome addition to your entry table! I could not believe your score when I saw all three windows on FB! And I am so glad you are enjoying them by displaying them and letting us enjoy them too! Thank you!
Your entry is beautiful and the windows are the perfect touch!

These are beautiful windows! I've had a bit of luck at some antique malls out in the country.
Love how you have arranged this table!

Those are lovely! I have a few leaded glass windows also and have wondered about hanging them between two parts of the same room, kind of like a visual divider. Not sure. I like yours displayed like that!
LOVE your old windows...they have so much character as well as being beautiful. And I like the idea of using your large white bowl as a vase...nice change!

Such a special find! They are awesome and I love how you used it on your table. And I love the book displayed open like that. Aren't old books just the best?
Perfect spot to enjoy your "new" window. It really is beautiful. I love the big white bowl and the vintage books, too!

Lindsey,
I just had to see how you were using these beauties in your home. Yes, I agree, this one was my fav too and it looks wonderful in your foyer. Hope you will be sharing at my Show and Share Party on Monday.
Blessings,
Linda

Your entry is so pretty, and the windows look perfect there! And, as the daughter of a book binder, I do appreciate the sewn book cover :) Congrats on your screaming deal!!
the windows are perfect right where they are at.
The windows are beautiful and they look lovely in your entryway. My son also collects old windows, so I understand your "addiction."
That bowl is clearly huge and it looks great there. I don't think I've ever seen such a special old book quite like that, Linsey. What a find!
Beautiful! Old windows add even more charm to an already charming space. Hope you'll hop over and share at Amaze Me Monday...
Blessings,
Cindy
I love, love, love the vintage devotional-
Those windows are quite the find--they are beautiful! Love your entryway display!
What fabulous windows you've found, Linsey! I like the diamond pane leaded glass window right where you've got it leaning on top of your table. I found another leaded glass window a few weeks ago and just today hung it in my kitchen bay window. Now I can view my garden through old wavy glass. Enjoy yours!
You know I love it! Antique Windows is gorgeous! and I'm crazy about that window treatment with the roman shades.

If I were a builder, I'd pot those leaded glass windows in my house. I once saw a beveled crystal and brass
window. I loved it.

what's going on with most of the bloggers they never comment back? Well some comment an answer on their own blogs. I never know till I revisit. Must be the heat-- haha yvonne
Oh my! What a score! I love all of them especially the round one. I'm sure you know how RARE that shape is. Good for you!
I have no words. It is perfect. Thank you for sharing.
