busted

Posted on January 28, 2012 by thirdstoryies
Two things:  One – I should have bought a yard of the curtain fabric, and not a chintzy 1/4 yard.  But I still dig it.  It just looks like a silly little valance hanging up there right now.  And two – I’m not sure why it looks so creamy in this picture, but the background looks more like the background of the pillow on the couch in real life.  I was a little concerned in the store that the background wasn’t white enough for this room with an abundance of white painted trim.  But it’s more of a gray background, and I really do like the contrast in person.  
Two more things:  Third – the real curtain won’t hang from clips, but will be mounted to upholstery hooks so you won’t see a gap at the top, and likely won’t see much of the track either.  And last – I went to get the camera and came back up to find this.  Um, hum.  Sneaky.
