After we started focusing heavily on exterior renovations for our home, we realized that our windows needed to change. Instead of trying to scrub them clean and deal with their leaky nature, we went to a professional glass expert and talked with him about replacing the windows. We were able to choose from a large selection of different styles, colors, and shapes, and it was really fantastic to find such amazing replacements. This blog is all about finding better windows for your home and knowing how to choose between all of the options out there. You never know, you might be surprised with how much of a difference the right windows can make.

Creative Things That You Can Do With The Old Windows You Are Replacing
Michele Kuhn
Instead of simply throwing out the old residential windows that you are replacing, you might want to find a better use for them. To help you come up with the best idea to suit your needs, you will want to check out the following suggestions.
Paintings For Your Walls
You can clean up the glass and the frame work of the old residential windows and once they are dry, you can use them as canvases for your own unique paintings. Get as creative as you want with these. You can stick with painting scenery on the glass as though you are looking through the window at a fantastic sight. Then again, you can turn the entire piece into a unique abstract painting. Paint on the windows to hang in your own home or to give away as gifts for birthdays and holidays.
Top For A Coffee Table
Attach legs to the corners and sides of the old windows using industrial screws. Then, measure the width and length of the window and have a glass company cut a thick piece of glass that will cover the entire window. You will add this solid piece of glass on the top of what is now your new coffee table to give it a little more security and to make it completely flat. Use an industrial strength glue that will hold the glass in place and will dry clear so it is not visible to anyone looking at the table.
Chalkboard For The Kitchen
You will want to first clean and dry the entire window. Then, you can either paint the entire piece with chalkboard paint or only apply it to the glass. If you are only applying the chalkboard paint to the glass, you can paint the frame work of the window to match the decor of the room that it will be in. After everything has dried, you may want to screw a small wooden ledge along the bottom of your new chalkboard. This is where you can place all of the chalk and erasers for the chalkboard. Lean it up against the wall along your kitchen counter or attach a heavy-duty picture hanging wire on the back of it and hang it on your kitchen wall.
After reading through the previously mentioned tips for things to do with your old windows, you should have no trouble making sure that you are making good use of them instead of just throwing them out with the trash. Work with a company like Bradenton Window & Allied Products to get new windows for your home and custom glass for any projects.
