Finally Put My Curtains Up!

[pomba gira]

OK this is a pretty lame thing to post about but... these damn things have been sitting in their boxes since I moved in back in April. Kept putting it off, one thing after another... then I felt bad that my auntie (who paid for them, & passed away in August) wouldn't get to see them in place so I didn't wanna deal with it... but, anyway, I finally worked up the gumption to put the damn things up. Still have two more kitchen windows to go... that will have to wait a bit since I did the dumbass move & didn't get rods for them when I could... and the laundry room. But I feel like this is a pretty good start. Hey if I don't find a teaching gig for this year maybe I can go into interior decorating!

I know the scarf valance on the double window needs work... think I'm gonna tack it up w/some of these really cool pushpins I found on eBay. Very detailed little silverplate figures- geisha, Isis, skull & bones, hand of Fatima- only problem is deciding which ones to get! Who knows, someday I may even get ambitious & hem those raggedy looking ends. And borrow a steamer to get the wrinkles out of the roman shades.

and, uh, just pretend you don't see the disgraceful pile of dirty dishes in the sink.

oh wow!

I love the colors and that glam look. Looks luxurious and rich.

I like them!

But... now you need to paint your walls.
