I\u2019ve been teasing all of you about a new outdoor upcycle project for a while, and I am so excited it is finally done! It was actually a really easy project to do, we\u2019ve just been extra busy lately! Well without further ado here it is:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Old<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

 <\/a>Let\u2019s take a quick step back and I\u2019ll tell you how this project came into fruition.  I had two problems that had been plaguing me:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. I had two old windows from our kitchen just sitting on the patio begging for a new life.<\/li>
  2. The view into our back yard is ugly! There are no gardens and because we have plans to gut the whole area and put in a pool (in like 3 years) we don\u2019t want to waste the time or money to install any.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Here\u2019s the view from our screened in porch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Back<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

     <\/a>I was stumped with what to do with this space until I saw this pin<\/a>! All of my problems seemed suddenly solved. I had a purpose for my old windows and a way to add color and dimension to our old shed,  I was lazy and didn\u2019t take pictures of the whole process but basically, we built a box out of cedar and attached it to the front of the windows.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
    \"Window<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

     <\/a>We drilled hooks into the overhang on the shed and hung the windows with chain. The chain is simply attached to the window with a screw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Window<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

     <\/a>And here is a window going up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Garden<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

     <\/a>OK, you caught me. I really just wanted to show off my hot hubby. But you have to admit that the new (old) faux windows really jazz up the old shed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Garden<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    \u00a0<\/a>If you want my secret for making window boxes look lush and full right away check out\u00a0this post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Flowers<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

     <\/a>And look how much the view from the porch has improved!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"Garden<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
