Window People?

We have all seen how great old windows are - many linky parties feature projects and decorating ideas what use old windows  - table tops, home decor, garden ideas and the list goes on and on. But did you ever think about using old windows to create a person? Well, that's exactly what this couple did up the road from me.

Eclectic Red Barn: Garden People from Old Windows and Other Parts
Now aren't they a handsome couple?  They have been out in the elements for awhile now and the man is having some issues - like his arm has fallen off. Hey, nothing lasts forever. She has a great red top and wait until you she her skirt. Can you determine what was used for the heads? Check below for the answer.

Is that not the coolest skirt and what about her purse? For being out in the elements, her hair looks pretty good and her lipstick isn't even messed up! Maybe she is going shopping?
Their heads are made from propane tanks. How cool is that!

Eclectic Red Barn: Garden Man from Old Windows and Other Parts
Now the guy on the other hand, is sitting down on the job! The woman has to do all the work - right? Well, he does have that bum arm - or lack of one (ooops)

His eyes seem to be following me! Maybe he knows I am taking his picture.

Well, the next time you find some old windows and are wondering what to do with them  - maybe you might build yourself some people too!!

    I can't believe she is going shopping when he's just had his arm amputated! As for me, I can't decide if these people are cool or creepy. Thanks for sharing!

    Unique! It takes a special way of seeing to repurpose things this way--to me, a window is a window.
