You know how I can tell it is going to be a good day?????
Well first thing this morning I get an email from my hair salon saying that all services are 20% off today. First come, first serve.
AND....I was going to call to get my hair colored today anyway....yee haw!
For those of you who are young and do not have to color your hair....I got nuthin to say. Your dead to me.
Yesterday I had the kitchen curtains installed at my clients house. The one I was working on this winter.
Remember???
Well here is the inspiration picture for the treatment over the sink...
When you open the front door and look down the hall the window over the sink is the first thing you see.
Now I am no "picture taking expert here"....so I did the best I could. Had to climb up on a barstool and try to get a shot without it looking like a black hole.
Here is the valance. It has a slight curve to it.
This fabric has what they call a "drop repeat". Which in curtain terms means "you need extra fabric"...which in money terms means "$$$$$".
A small price to pay for happiness when you stand over your kitchen sink for like a third of your life. At least right???
Here is the before view of the dining area. And yes those bulbs are heinous....there.....caught you before you muttered it under your breath.
Here is a picture of the slipper chairs before....
And yes...I picked that fabric 20 years ago. Again....stop snickering. I want to see what you picked when you were all of 15.
And here is a peek of the after. If you look closely, we used a fan pleat. My fav.
These were not staged.....no rug yet...yada...yada...yada....
She has a lot of really colorful art and I love this one to keep it fun and not so traditional...
Baby steps.....I love these rods from
Gifer [their iron collection]. This is the only site I found online [not where I get mine]. You can get 19 ft rods that are easy for your installer to cut. He said they are his favorite.
And I want my installer to be happy.
Can I just tell you how awesome they are for the price??? Perfect height [they come in a tall and short], and really nice shade. I ordered 2 cream ones for her den.
I really wanted a blue/green one but had to settle for cream. I will probably add some blue trim to the shade.
And the last thing today my little chicas....... the winner of the giveaway is Erin....who does not blog but leaves me sweet comments all the time...:)
So there you have it.
One other little tidbit that I am sure will either make you smile or consider me a loser. The other day when I came home from teaching my fitness class,
I noticed that I had my pants on backwards. Yup...the whole class.
Let's get through this Wednesday.....check you pants.....
