Today was the first day back to school, yay!!
I’d love to say that it was an incredibly productive day and now my house is shiny and spotless and I got heaps of sewing done, but that would probably be exaggerating slightly ;o)We moved into our house just over 3 years ago now, and soon afterwards I bought fabric to make curtains…
Well, the curtains for Rhiannon’s room got done straight away, the curtains for the loungeroom were done 6mths later, but the fabric for the boys’ curtains has been cut and sitting there making me feel guilty for 2 1/2 years now! I bought fabric to do curtains for the rumpus room about 2 years ago… it’s been all cut and sitting around waiting to be sewn for 18mths now!
Anyway, on the weekend I asked DH if he could put up some shelves for me in the cupboard in the boys’ room. He has resorted to blackmail/bribery, and said he’d do them when I did the curtains! So when my mum came to visit the last couple of days, we’ve been pinning and sewing curtains! They’re not quite finished yet, but I’ve hung them up so I can measure the hems, so I thought I’d take some photos to make this post a bit more interesting.
So, here’s the before and after shots (excuse the mess!)
Back - before
