Let’s Talk Old Windows
If you have never made a project with an old window, then you are missing out! This is because old windows are the perfect base for a variety of projects, ranging from home decor to furniture.
Today, as I mentioned above, I have rounded up 10 old window crafts that are perfect for any farmhouse home! However, before we look at these projects, I wanted to briefly mention where you can purchase old windows if you don’t have them lying around your home.
The best places to get old windows (in my opinion) are thrift stores, antique stores, salvage stores, garage sales, flea markets, and Facebook Marketplace. Now, with that being said, depending on where you go will affect the price, but usually, windows are fairly cheap.
I have had great luck finding old windows at both thrift stores and flea markets.
Hopefully this is helpful for your ”old window search”! Also, don’t forget to ask your family and friends if they have old windows, because you might be able to get something for free!

I love windows! A few years ago the hubby got some really nice old ones with the old wood panes and such. He ended up getting rid of them unbeknownst to me. Sigh! The fun I could have had!
Happy Memorial Day!
