I apologize for the horrible photos, but taking photos of a window is hard!
With the long holiday weekend I had grand plans of getting to all sorts of crafty projects. Of course that didn't happen! The only thing I did do was something that I didn't plan on doing, it just sort of happened. Crazy, I know.
Friday night we had 2 less kids, so I made new curtains. This was so easy, I don't know why I put it off. I took the total slacker route and didn't line them or hem the sides, but I like them anyway. Wait, I more than like them, I LOVE them.
When we installed the first shade weeks ago, I really didn't like it. Then I put my old curtains back up to see if I liked the shade any more. Eh, I liked it a little more, but not much. I decided to wait on my decision about the shade once I had the real curtains made. Then I got my curtain fabric, which I was still questioning. I procrastinated a bit, but once I got the curtains made and hung, I immediately installed the second shade. I'm so happy I followed through with my idea.
See, these are long enough, unlike my last ones, which always bothered me. These curtains are made of natural colored linen, which look pretty gray. I love the look of the light filtered through these. It really does give the room a whole new look. It's all coming together, I guess I had better get started on that table quilt!
