A 2x4 Picture Window: a DIY Experience

The 2x4 picture window is a great window to DIY. The project takes about 3-4 hours to complete and you can save a lot of money by doing it yourself

Here's how I did it

1) Measure the size of your window frame, make sure there's enough space for the two sides of your picture frame (the two sides that will be covered by the window). In my case, I had about 6 inches of space left at each side

2) Get some wood from Home Depot or Lowes, I got mine from Home Depot, it was only $5 per board so it was not expensive at all

3) Assemble all four pieces together with screws and nails or glue where needed (I used nails). You will need two boards at each side and one in the middle to make sure that everything fits well together. Make sure that you don't over tighten any screws so they don't pop off when you try to remove them later on

4) Cut out your shape at home based on the measurements that you took earlier (I used an exacto knife but you can also use a saw if you have one). You will need to use a pencil
