Painting old windows

I found this window frame at the curb. I had mirrors installed and painted it. It was in the basement to reflect light for years. One of the mirrors was broken years ago. Its not that obvious so I will leave it as is.

These windows were original to the house. The taller one from the bathroom on the main floor. The smaller one was from the basement I believe. I have cleaned them every summer for at least 20 yrs but never painted the glass that I have a few ideas for. They are not in great shape but I will add some wood glue and paint. Let's see if they get done this year...lol
