He's a thread that's just asking to be locked. But adding some stuff to the wiki wouldn't be a bad idea IMO.

Can you please reask your question in more detail? Where will you use this GUI?

Do you mean you want to write a window manager? For your OS or another OS?

Usually icons and the like are stored in images on the disk, this could also apply for the various decor around the window. The alternative is to procedurally generate they decor (this means draw the lines in code, use fractals to make patterns, draw gradients in code, etc).

Do you have a working OS up to the stage you can load programs and draw graphics onto the screen (the minimum you should be at before thinking about implementing a GUI)?

Read about James T. Klik.
