I recently saw this window at Susie Harris’ blog. I instantly fell in love with it. However I didn’t think it fit my decor. BUT, that was before I did my fireplace makeover. After gave my fireplace a new outfit, I decided something like this would be perfect for my mantel. You can click on the picture to go to Susie’s site. If you’ve never been there, check it out (later, after you read my post)
The first step was to make a paper pattern. I had specific plans for this faux window so it’s dimensions had to be within a certain scope.
I went back to the drawing board and tried again. It’s hard to tell the size of this. It is about 14×28.
I’m not a very patient person, when I want to start something I have a hard time waiting. See this nice sunshine? Don’t be fooled! It was about 38 degrees with a wind chill about 25. I had this curbed piece of 1/2 inch plywood. It was very difficult to get the paper pattern to lay on the wood due to the wind blowing so hard. Mostly I drew the curving parts and marked the corners.
I have a wonderful metal yardstick that is perfect for these types of projects. I used it to connect the dots.
I finished drawing it out on the wood, then I made dots in each of the corners.
I used my Black & Decker drill to drill holes in each of the corners.
I then used my jigsaw to cut out the square “panes”. I simply put the blade into the holes and sawed from one hole to the next.
Drilling the holes in each of the corners makes it easier…no corners to turn. You can see how this project turned out in my post faux window pt 2

My favorite feature is the SmartSelect feature – seems so easy to use even I can use it.
Hope I get a chance.
I love the SmartSelect Dial. This feature sounds like it would make your projects go smoothly!

I’m loving the light, but the dial control looks like it would be fantastic!
Me, again. I am a follower, of course.
Wow! I have my Dad’s very first jigsaw and have been looking for an upgrade. Thanks for doing the research for me — ha! The SmartSelect blade-freeing selector is amazing, as is the illuminated line finder. Thanks, too, for letting us play along.
Have to say the line finder would be my favorite feature. Too cool.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! This is the COOLEST tool EVER! The line finder?! Genius needs an award! I LOVE IT! If I don’t win it, my birthday is on Friday and maybe I’ll have to go buy it!
Very cool item. I like the line finder.
Thanks for visiting my blog! I hope you are enjoying Nashville. I just started following you a short while ago and put a link to your blog on mine. You’ve got some great projects!
I guess I’ll throw my name in the hat while I’m here. I like the linefinder and the angle adjuster on the jigsaw. Jigsaws are fantabulous. Mmm… powertools…
Happy Birthday! I’ve been using a circular saw for all my cuts. I’d love to hit my lines better with this jigsaw. 🙂
Oh, and Happy Birthday!! I love your blog and I am now a fan!!
Omgosh, that line thingy would be so cool!!! I love that saw!
Just became a follower. I love blogs like yours!
Would love any machine that allows me a better chance at cutting a straight line.
I’m a FOLLOWER and I like the window.
I liked the smart select dial and the accue-belve angle adjustment would be a nice to win this.
I like the project icons on the side that will automatcally adjust the oribital settings and speed for your cut!! Rakes a lot of the guess work out for someone like me. I just need to get me some googles now…I already have my fractional tape measurer!!! I’d be all set to go with that jigsaw!!! WOO HOO!!
Fingers crossed in SC!

I have been following for quite a while. Well stalking actually, because I almost never leave a comment. I know, bad blogger manners.
I cannot believe I almost missed this fabulous giveaway! I want it!!! I don’t have a jigsaw, but if I did, it should be this one I think it is perfect for DIY newborns like myself. My main problem is that I can’t see streaight, so having that line finder would be a DREAM!!!! Thanks for the opportunity. Karyn
I am a facebookian fan
I follow through google because that’s how the cool kids do it 😉
It looks so easy to use! That light and line finder are both genius ideas.
I follow via my google account.
The linefinder is such a great concept. I’m trying to convince my husband I need power tools. This looks like it will be the jigsaw I go for!
I have been DYING for a jigsaw for a few years now. Sweet hubby just smiles at me. booo.
Loving the angle ability, the line finder, the magnetic blade storage- the fact that its a JIGSAW!
I don’t usually “tweet”… but I tweeted about it!

That LineFinder is one neat feature! I have trouble cutting a straight line without a lot of guidance and this would be perfect for all my to-do projects in my 90 year old home.

the line finder, i think. i don’t know too much about these but I would love to try out some of my ideas!!

The linefinder is definitely a plus. I could maybe do my own cutting instead of having to depend on my hubby all the time if I won! 🙂
And now a facebook fan! Yay! 😀
And, yes, I’m an RSS feed subscriber! Have been for awhile now…
Holy cow! I’m hyperventilating, just thinkin’ about the jigsaw-y goodness of the B&D LINEFINDER! Besides the fact that it’d be mine, and MINE ALONE, I dig the auto orbital setting and speed feature. Thanks Gail (Happy Birthday!), and Black & Decker for the giveaway opportunity.
I love the linefinder light. I often work in less than perfect light, and I’ve hit the over 40, need reading glasses sometimes point. yuk! I have a father-in-law who is so great with wood working. He’ll be so jeolous!
OH my! I can’t decide what I like more, the linefinder pen and linefinder light OR the Smart select dial! This tool makes it all so easier for a novice tool user! I really hope I win!!!!

WOW, that is awesome. I have a regular Black and Decker jigsaw and it drives me nuts when I can’t see the line well. The last project I had the lines were all off. That is so cool that it actually lights up the line. Here’s hoping!!

What a great give-away, thanks for sharing. I love the line-finder feature as well as the easy dial. The pen clip on the cord is such a great idea, I hate searching for my pencil when I am working…and it is hard to always keep it on my ear!
I just became a fan on your facebook too… good luck to everyone.
Oh that is just too cool… I love that line finder… and the magnetic blade storage… and the fact that it can also do angles… and adjustable dial… this is a no brainer for sure…oh heck I just LOVE the whole saw… I am Canadian but can ship it to my BF’s address in New York… hope that is okay.
PS… Loving your new banner… what a sweet daughter… and hope you have a wonderful birthday.

This tool seems to have everything you need – it puts my 25 year old Black and Decker to shame. What a neat idea with the light but I really love the dial. My saw only turns on and off, nothing special so adding these features to an already great item is wonderful.
Oh and I’m a follower of yours
Oh I would love to use this little thing,, I love the light pen that shows you where to cut.. what a great idea.
I JUST found your website now and I have to make this window! A tool to complete it would be nice too.

The linefinder light is so cool. The glowing uv looks like it would be so much easier to see than pencil.
Oooh! I like it when you have a birthday! ; )
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
And I love following your blog.
I was just reading your post and then thought, hmph, I don’t have a jigsaw, so no use even trying this one.
Maybe I’ll get lucky? = )
I’m Canadian so not eligible to win, so I’m just here to say Happy Birthday Gail!
I have just started with blogging and following blogs and yours I love. I could so use that jigsaw for some things I have in the works.
LOL-I must not have had enough coffee yet this morning..I clicked on the video and it was about drills. Completely threw me off for a minute. Is there anything NOT to like about the jigsaw?? THe light, magnetic blade holder, line finder and it’s pretty 😉
Now that I’m pretty much unemployed I could have LOADS of fun with that baby!!!
Thanks for having the giveaway Gail 🙂

I think my hubby will faint dead away if I give him this link (http://www.blackanddecker.com/smartselect/jigsaws.aspx?WT.mc_id=BDSSelectJigsaw) and tell him that I want the “tool with the special glow-in-the-dark-thingy.” I’d have to say it like that so that he can still keep his “man points.”
I love the faux window! Wouldn’t it be gorgeous as a headboard?! And happy birthday!
I’m new at this but would love that saw with the dial that I think would help me with a variety of projects.
What a really neat window, can’t wait to see how it all turns out. Your room has really came along nicely. Nice saw…and HAPPY BIRTHDAY
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, what fun. What’s not to like, the line quide, the magnectic blade storage-always looking for blades arrgh. Have to admit though I scrolled right on by looking for your completed project, scrolled up and down in search before I stopped to read about the great give away. Looking forward to seeing your finished project.
I think with the SmartSelect dial, even a novice like me could use this jigsaw!

I have to agree with the first comment! The light that shines on your cut? Genius!
HAHA I don’t know how to use a saw yet, but that line finder is AWESOMEEEE! Jami
Oh, and I can’t wait to see your window! And I’m a follower 🙂
Happy Birthday Gail! My birthday is the end of this month…March is a great one, eh?
I would LURVE to win this, and I went over to the site to see what it’s all about. I think the line finder and smart select details would make this a great first jigsaw for me 🙂
