Today was the day! My curtains were finally installed and I could not be happier. After almost a year of sheets on the windows, it was a happy day in my household as we watched out windows get transformed from ewwww….too ahhhhh..!
The curtains for our room are a nice medium beige color with a beautiful sheer curtain that is a light bluish teal color. The same style is on our balcony that will soon be a nice little coffee/reading spot!
I still have to put curtains in the salon but we have to wait until the walls are repainted so for now my beautiful curtains are waiting for 1 week from now when they get to do their job and cover my windows.
For the entry way, we had to make a nice curtain since we removed the door and at my mother in laws suggestion I put a nice lacey looking curtain. I might have to have the guy make it a little thicker because you can still see through it to the bathroom..Moe doesn’t like to shut the door
.
For the little miss teenager that thinks she is all grown now, she opted for some shiny looking burgundy colored curtains with black out…black out is actually white and it blocks the sun. Her room has a huge panel of windows that go from the ceiling to the baseboard and in the summer and even some days in winter, the sun hitting directly in the room has melted several things that were not even in direct contact with the sun. That’s hot! lol. Here is her pick. She has two other windows that are actually sliding glass doors and they were covered with just the plain burgundy like what you see here. Her room used to be my balcony but since our flat is small, we converted it to a room just for her!
It was a bit hard to get nice photos inside the house because some of the fabrics were “shiny” type fabrics. Either way I am sure you get the picture lol.
For my kitchen I got some regular curtains that are machine washable which is good because my stove has to be near the window. There are some apples in a basket on the design. This was a pick by my daughter…I wanted a different one but agreed that this would also match nicely in the kitchen.
So there you have it! Who knew a post about curtains could be so long?

A man was walking with a group of men along a road. While walking they came upon a dead animal. All of the men were commenting on how awful it smelled to how ugly it looked. One man said, "But look at how white it's teeth are." Even if something isn't appealing...it's wonderful to find at least one nice quality.
