No, I didn’t go on vacation like Jenny and Tina. I’ve just been very busy at work and spending evenings cleaning and buying furniture and fabric. :) I’m getting my new blue sofa tomorrow. Yay! And last night I bought about a million yards (ok, only 14) of pretty new fabric for curtains. Thank goodness for the 50% off coupons Jo-Ann’s sends me. How can people afford this stuff otherwise?!? The curtain fabric is very sheer, and I got a more solid version of it to make a few pillows from. I’ll post pics of the fabric eventually. It might take a while to figure out how to make curtains, since I was just too cheap to spend $25 on a book that outlined it in detail… Especially considering that was almost half of what I spent on the fabric — after the 50% discount. But I think I’ll still make out better in the end than if I bought good quality curtains at the store – can you buy nice long panels with a valance for $35 per window? I haven’t even looked…
That’ll be a good question for me in the near future, as I’ll need window treatments. Ack.
