The Small Details - Old Barn Windows

I have always loved the look of old barn windows - something that reminds me of my childhood at my grandparents farm house.  I stumbled upon a family selling barn windows over 80 years old!  So Jonnathan and I headed up there and picked a couple of them out - they have a ton of character and ranged between $5 and $10, which is a really good deal! I knew there had to be a creative way to use them around our house for decoration and for the wedding.  Sure enough - I’m not the only one!  I found another bride from a blog who used the barn windows to tell her guests where to sit.  Instead, I’m thinking of writing our menu on them: “Nana’s Broccoli Grape Salad”, “Mom’s Famous Apple Pie” etc.  and then placing them near the buffet.  What do you think?
