Juke Joint is both a venue for dance music and a rockin' style of rhythm
blues from the 50's. These venues in the south were usually intimate
and were the place to be.
This frame is made from recycled wood flooring and glass from Cincinnati.

The Midnight Sun
Not only an awesome act of nature, The Midnight Sun is also an instrumental song originally written in 1947. It was adapted in 1957 with vocals by Ella Fitzgerald. She nailed it. Hear it here...
Unfortunately, this glass cracked when I got a lil handsy building the frame. (crack is pictured) But, not a problem for me cause I'll just keep it! Unless someone else digs it as much as I do, I can potentially make another.
Frame is recycled wood flooring from a Cincinnati school gymnasium.

Lil Guys - New Smaller Windows with Handmade Repurposed Wood Frames
Hey there, here we've got a a brand new collection of lil guys! By Signs By Bean.
What are lil guys, bean? Well! They are smaller than my normal repurposed window paintings. These are 11x14 glass panes in hand made wood frames. The frames are made of recycled wood flooring. Frame and glass measure 18in x 15in. Each frame will be different and documented appropriately, each piece of wood flooring has it's own history shown by it's scratches, flecks of paint, or color.
Thanks to the ReBuilding Exchange for doing their thing and providing the peoples with materials.
These windows are in limited editions of 1/3, 2/3, and so on. After the third is sold the design is retired and on to the next.
I currently have two groups of lil guys. They are both limited edition collections of windows.
The first collection is beer themed with windows featuring different types of brews; pilsner, stout, porter, IPA, and more. The second group is poker and playing card themed; ace of spades, king of clubs, queen of hearts, jack of diamonds. And maybe... a surprise Joker!
Here we have the Queen of Hearts in all her glory. $SOLD
And the well known Ace Of SpadesSOLD
