Do you remember that vintage window pane that I turned into a picture frame and then gifted to my brother and sister-in-law for their nursery?
Well, before it ended up on baby Mae’s walls, it also had a moment as a vintage window seating chart at my girlfriend’s wedding.
Here it was after my original makeover (see that tutorial for how to add wire for hanging photos)…
And then where it ended up in baby Mae’s nursery.…
But let’s back up to the seating chart.
My girl Courtney was getting married, and had decided on elements like vintage blue mason jars, old hardcover books, and beautiful succulents for her wedding decor. I knew the vintage window would fit in perfectly.
To make the little sheets that would hang in the window panes, I grabbed some ivory cardstock and downloaded the “Travelling Typwriter” font.
Since the tables were different sizes, instead of grouping it by table I did the names alphabetically.
Then it was just a matter of printing and cutting out the sheets of paper and clipping them onto the wire.
I also made a “Name & Table No” piece for the top, and a “Find your seat” sheet to sit on the wine barrel.
The whole thing took very little time to make and looked pretty darling.
Okay seriously, vintage windows … you can use them in so many different ways, hey? Don’t hesitate to ever grab these on the side of the road if you ever see them in someone’s garbage. Junkyard gold.
