Glasgow streets taken over by a Window Wanderland

The Cathcart Community Council chose love as a theme for the weekend following Valentine's day

Residents of Cathcart in Glasgow are the latest to turn their homes into a "Window Wonderland".

The events, held at different times across the UK, allow communities to get creative with brightly decorated windows.

"All you had to have was a window," says Cathcart Community Council chairwoman Carolyn Lochhead.

"The idea was to do something that everyone could get involved in. It didn’t involve having to spend any money or go anywhere in particular."

Homes signed up were displayed on a map for residents to plan a walking route around.

Ms Lochhead said: "What was great about it was over the weekend there was so many people out on the streets looking at all the designs and chatting to their neighbours, bringing the community together."

Ms Lochhead added: "It’s caught people’s imaginations and it’s brought them together"

Brightly decorated windows filled the streets with love

The wider theme across the UK was music, so some celebrated both themes with the iconic Beatles lyric: "All you need is love."

Another theme that emerged was a Cathcart appreciation for cats

'Enjoy Yourself (It's Later Than You Think)' - the song referenced in the window was played alongside it over the weekend

The famous Clyde paddle steamer The Waverley was drawn over three windows

Neighbours got the chance to see each other's window art from Friday to Sunday

Local organisations and businesses got involved too

Some displays celebrated the local area

One resident illustrated the Scottish 'Three Craws' rhyme

This window depicts the Glasgow coat of arms - the fish that never swam, the bell that never rang, the tree that never grew and the bird that never flew

Ms Lochhead said residents are already looking forward to next year's festivities

Events are upcoming in Glasgow's Battlefield, Strathbungo and Mount Florida neighbourhoods
