Made in the Shade

I’ve been slowly working on decorating the baby’s room.  Now that he’s due to arrive in only 6 days, I’m feeling the deadline inch closer and closer.   Many of the things I want to do are not done yet, but the curtains are done.  :)

They really shouldn’t have taken me as long to finish as they did.  I have lots of excuses and “reasons” for taking so dang long to put them together, but whatever…  I guess it doesn’t matter how long it took.  It’s done, and I think it looks pretty good.

The windows in my kids rooms are a bit awkward, at least I think they are.  They measure 60 inches wide, and 36 inches tall.  To put up blinds in these windows, we would have to order custom blinds, and I don’t like blinds enough to pay for custom ones… 

So, I made some roman shades instead.  Here’s the shade in the baby’s room.  It’s my favorite.  :)

Please excuse the many, many fingerprints on the window…

Honestly, the shade for the big boys’ room is complete but not hanging just yet.  we keep procrastinating.  Maybe this weekend we’ll get it done.  :)  Maybe.
