A Window Into The Past



My parents just celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary and I threw them a party. In preparation for the party I had asked them for pictures and they brought me a laundry basket full of them. After the party was over they told me that I could hang onto the pictures for a while. I am going through this phase recently where I am trying to salvage as much of my family's heirlooms as possible and learn as much as I can about my family's history (not the who was born from who history but the stories, places they lived, adventures they took, people they loved).
Anyways, I wanted to display the pictures in a way that really showed them off and they would not just be another picture. I can't take full credit for the idea though, my sister-in-law is getting married this fall and my mother-in-law is going to hang up old windows and put pictures of the bride and groom in the window, which I think is going to be the cutest thing ever!
