Painted Vintage Windows

Fifteen years ago a friend offered me some beat up old wooden windows that her remodeling contractor husband had
retrieved from a job site. They were small and old fashioned frames with multiple panes that were intact and quite filthy
and I was immediately charmed and intrigued by the creative possibilities inherent in these architectural remnants. So...I
took 'em! And the rest, as they say, is history.

I've always liked the design concept of "color on color, pattern on pattern" and the window frames seemed to be the
perfect vehicle for such techniques. Florals, geometrics, checks, design repeats, landscapes and whimsical combinations
thereof started to flow. I became known locally as the grateful recipient of any old window castoffs from remodel sites.
There are any number of charming old "UpNorth" cottages in this area of Michigan being replaced by newer, more modern
versions and the supply of old cottage windows was endless. I have a huge selection of windows taking up a great deal of
space in our storage shed, including a wide variety of shapes and sizes available for commissioned work, which I welcome.

Below are Cottage Outlook windows that are available now. I welcome inquiries about commissioned custom windows and
would be happy to discuss specific colors, favorite flowers, special scenes (working from photographs), individualized
design elements, etc. Please contact me using the form below. I will be adding new windows as they become available, so
check back often

Thanks, Lori
