A drapery! Ni! Ni!

Well, you're all too late with those grand decorating ideas. Four thousand trips to Target later, we have the curtains we like.

Curtain Cage Match! These were the two finalists. At this point, we've looked at green sheers, this dark green silk, a light blue silk, and this lighter green cotton tab tops.



Surprisingly, I really liked the lighter, cotton curtains. It's hard to tell in these pix (because apparently my photography skills have gone to crap) but they're quite nice next to all of the different room elements. They pick up accents in the rug, they look nice with both the red wall and the cream wall, and they do well with the woodwork. Here's a contrast shot:


And, yeah, crappy photography. Oh, look, better pictures! Summertime is porch time:

And because you haven't seen Adam's car in a while, here it is behind my patchwork hosta beds:

I think that the green ones would match Adam's car better if you were viewing it through the window.

Yay! Drapes! Dude, I haven't seen your house in a long time. I didn't even know you painted. I like.
