HOW TO REUSE OLD WINDOWS lovely french shelf

Last month I realized I have never had a hand towel in the bathroom. Ive lived here for years and I

would hunt down a big bath towel hanging on the door to dry my hands. Last week I went out and

found some nice pretty soft ones care of HomeSense. And I cant believe Ive converted so quickly

that I am using them several times a day. Before I enjoy them too much I wanted to use them in a

photo shoot.

I love to create, whether Im building something or taking a great picture of it. It focuses my mind

and keeps me moving, but I have to work at my own pace to rest my back as it needs.

This time I took a few days and custom designed a French shelf around two vintage windows.

Ive done something similar years ago but then it was a dresser I repurposed instead of windows.

These windows are like the ones I remember from elementary school. They have an interesting

look with a wire mesh inside the glass and texture outside leaving them slightly frosted.

Every piece of trim I used on this shelf was salvaged from other discarded furniture.

I hope this has inspired you to find different ways to repurpose vintage windows.

Instead of buying the furniture from the market, they prefer to be creative and spend sometime making it by themselves. You just need to know the right guidelines to make the pallet shelf. You can make the pallet shelf easily by attaching the pallets together in any shape. It depends how big you need, you can make as many as shelves you want. Pallets can be found anywhere free or if not you would be able to find them in home depot for a very low cost.

People love pallet shelves in their house so that they can put decoration pieces in their house to make their house look elegant. You can also put frames on pallet shelf. Make sure to hang it tightly with the screws so that it does not fall down. Pallet shelves can be very convenient and you can even clean them eventually with Clorox to make them look clean.
