I purchased a bunch of old windows when a nearby thrift shop went out of business. Wasn't sure why at the time, but figured I could do SOMETHING with them. And here's what I did. Knocked the glass out - carefully - and removed the interior aluminum frame. Cleaned up the dirt and took an Orbital Hand Sander to the paint job to get off the flaking paint and grime. I liked the look, so I didn't repaint the frame, but you certainly could do that. I then stapled chicken wire to the back of the frame, as well as a piece of cording to hang the board. Then I used regular clothes pins, hot glued a button to the front of each one and tied a small piece of country plaid fabric onto them. This is the result.
