yep, finally got new curtains. sorry for all the funny angles. my camera would wig out when the light hit it straight on. so i had to sneak up on them. i found this fabric for $3 a yard at joanne’s. i was so excited. it is a little drab, but i am sure i will find a way to liven things up.
on the whole, they were very simple and easy. i just sewed plain panels and hung them with clip on’s. is that cheating?
i was able to get them done over thanksgiving break. i think i will take projects with me every time we head on vacation. shouldn’t let all that free baby sitting go to waste.
and don’t you love my mother-in-law’s table? i understand that at a young age my husband told her that when she died he got her pewter. now that’s thinking ahead.
i’m becoming a little horrified at the thought of having to do thanksgiving by myself. i don’t know how she got all sixteen dishes warm and on the table at the same time with one oven. now i know why people go to chuck-o-rama. it’s making more sense all the time.
Cool table set. Where are you going on vacation?
The pewter was a wedding gift from Marc’s father.
gayla – i don’t believe it.
tim – not a “vacation” really, just chilling at the in-laws (an hour and a half away). she feeds me and spoils my children.
marc watches soccer, it’s one of his very special needs.
Believe it.
They look lovely. And I think they’ll match those chairs perfectly. Offer her 75.
