Building my window day 2

I used sand paper to smooth over the rough bits of wood and to remove the excess filler. This took a while but I think that the result made it worth it.

I then painted the frame, I decided on white as the walls behind the TV are creamy coloured as are the curtains so I thought that white would stand out nicely.

Once the paint was dry I carefully (so as not to crack it) cut the acrylic to size. I then drilled holes in the acrylic for the screws that would hold it in place.

I pulled off the protective plastic from one side of the acrylic and screwed it to the frame.

Then using double sided sticky tape I measured (for the centre line) and attached the beading that created the 4 panels of glass in the window.

Then I needed to make the legs that the window would stand on. So I measured from the floor to the bottom of the window (while my boyfriend held it up in place) then marked out the length and cut both bits down to size. I used the same type of wood as the frame. 

I removed the last piece of plastic from the acrylic and attached the legs in the room where the TV is. I'm really pleased with how it turned out.
