I have thought about keeping the old windows, even using them to build a green house, but I'm afraid that they contain lead paint. I don't know how much I want to mess with that.

I think that the bright checkered pattern on the glasses, just add a little more cheeriness to the kitchen :) I built that scarecrow with a plywood base about 4 years ago when I had a backyard baby-shower for my niece. I dressed her up and put a big rubber ball under her clothes and set her in my flower garden. She ended up being the backdrop for several baby-shower photos, LOL.
