Lynn saw the use of an old french door or multi-pane window re-purposed as a photo frame and suggested that we do something along the same lines for the cottage. We've decided to populate the frame with images that capture special cottage times, "firsts", times with family, times with friends and memorable moments.
I took a selection of images made since we took possession in August 2013, printed 5x7's and brought them up to fill the frame and hang it over the weekend. It turned out even better than we had anticipated. Hung on the hall wall (short as it is), just outside a room that sees regular use, it stops me and makes me smile every time I see it. There's always at least one image that catches my eye and stirs great memories. We plan to add new images as time goes on, likely removing the more scenic ones to be replaced with times with friends and family.
We call it "The Cottage Window". It lets us look out onto the good times we've already had up there and reminds us how precious these times are.
