not good.

I pulled up the blinds in the living room this morning... only to see this... 


No idea what happened here. The kids swear there was no wrestling/window kicking going on. Pretty sure the dog can't be blamed. The cold?? I have no idea. But it's going to be a problem. This window is old. And big. And has leaded glass above it.

Not a cheap problem, I'm afraid.

Big Bummer. Try using tape till you replace it.

Not a fun way to start a weekend! Hope it's not too much too fix.

do you have any more red duct tape? Old windows are beautiful, but not fun in a situation like this. Hope it turns out to be cheaper than you think!

I was also going to suggest red duck tape! You might be surprised how easy it will be to replace. There may have been a window in my girls' bedroom that had to be replaced in the last year or two due to some rough housing. I was surprised how easy and inexpensive it was to replace the glass. Mitch had to do the labor but it looks great!

we had the same problem in our big leaded glass window...though it was in the leaded glass section. it did involve taking the window out for repair.

so sorry this happened when it got cold!

My architect hubby said "that there is a force trauma"...hmmm...which reminds me of the big, furry brother dog at my house. Ollie has cracked our front window and BITTEN off pieces of the trim several times trying to eat the mail carrier. Fun. He is a bad dog though and Marley is a good dog! I hope you find a cheap, easy solution to fixing this pretty window!
