Garden Arbors Made From Recycling Old Windows

How to make a cute garden arbor out of old recycled windows. You can find old windows at resale shops, on the curb, or even get them from friends and family that are remodeling.

I admit it, I have a strange obsession with old windows. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THEM! Ok, I like all old things. My poor husband doesn’t understand it but it’s true.  I am forturnate enough to  have a brother who decided to completely remodel his 1920’s  house.  When they did they got rid of about 20 old windows! I was so excited!  Well, I carried the windows around for 3 moves and hubby was getting tired of moving windows that “I never did anything with”. I just said “I know, but I love and WILL do something with them!

Two years ago we finally had the money to buy a picket fence that I had been waiting for for over 13 years! Getting out of debt was our top priority so we never spent any on the extras.  We were finally totally debt free and the first thing I wanted to do was put up a picket fence with an arbor.

    I love your arbor!! Do have directions or a list of materials and the lengths you used? Also is your fence the Manchester?
    Thanks!

      Rebecca that is their arbor from many years ago so they don’t have any measurements (not sure they ever had any because they just kind of winged it) or remember what the fence was. It was just one they found at Lowe’s and liked.
