You might remember my indecisiveness about which color to paint the metal laurels above my windows in the living room, so much so that I actually painted one black and one white. Thanks for all the feed back on this too, someone suggested painting them the wall color and I contemplated that for a while as well. Why I can put together an entire room and then get stuck on a minute detail, I'll never know...but stuck I was.
I lived with my ying and yang for a while, and finally it occurred to me what the problem was. The curtain rods. They are decent rods, nickel finish with a little bauble on the end, nice enough, but they just don't belong. We are also going to go ahead and blame my indecisiveness on them too, while we're at it!
No, I didn't paint them, although I would've, but I had black rods hanging in the kitchen, so I robbed those and went ahead and changed my Summer panels for my winter ones....
...and then I was happy. It's a miracle.
The laurels are from the garden dept. at Hobby Lobby earlier this year and Justin drilled holes in them so I could hang them upright. Standard procedure: Clean metal primer and gloss black.
Can you see my pet peeve in this shot? I am going shopping for fabric to lengthen those panels, I hope to find some. And when I do, I'm gonna have to get behind that sewing machine. again. ugh.
Next week, I'll show you how to embellish branches from your yard
...and I've been racking my brain on what to have a giveaway on and it finally occurred to me, I can't wait to share it with you, next week!
