I made a couple that I think came out pretty nice. They ended up costing about $25 each, but it is still…

The builder only had an apron and stool installed on each window (the piece of trim at the bottom-front), but I wanted something more substantial and decided to add casing to the entire window. The goal is to make it look more "finished", and I was looking for straight and clean lines as opposed to a more detailed trim that leads on the traditional…

Last weekend Ethan, Kim and I worked with a team of five other volunteers to install six replacement windows in a 1950s split level home. The original windows in the house were constructed of solid wood. They were likely beautiful in their time, but years of weather and several coats of paint had not been kind to them. Their energy inefficiency was also an issue, with cold drafts leaking through in the winter and no Low-E glass to block UV penetration in the Summer. As with many homes from…

How to Upgrade Your Windows With Craftsman Style Trim - Gina Michele

The reality is that there is not just one good way to install windows, but there are certain principles that must be taken care of with any installation to prevent cold air or water leakage later. Basically a window installation must shed most of the water with the siding, what does get through someday is keep away from the wood and directed downward with a drainage path that positively drains outdoors -- the wall portion between the sash and the frame is insulated and sealed air tight on…
