Just Our Thoughts

Excuse the clutter.

These curtains were sooooo easy. We bought 10 blankets at 10$ a piece. We bought dowels and hooks. We were hoping to not do any sewing but it turned out that the dowels were too big to fit in the seam that was already there. So J ripped and I re-stitched. I put in the dowels and he hung them over the windows.

There were a number of reasons for this project. Our windows are single pane, 1930s glass windows. Some have cracks. The heat loss in the winter is incredible! Secondly, there was no way to block the sun, so often we couldn't see the tv or computer screens. Or at nap time the sun was often shining right in the eyes of the little one trying to sleep. Both problems solved!!
