Some Finished Projects.

I am finally done!!! I have been working on a couple of projects for months now! Doing a little here and a little there. First of all I got these curtains for the windows down stairs, but they were a little too short for my liking. (shows one curtain before I added fabric and one after) The curtains said on the package that longer sizes were available and could be purchased on line. I looked it up and nothing. I called and called and noone could tell me anything. I decided to let some time pass, to see if it was something that would be available soon. In the mean time I came across this entertainment center on KSL.com for an OK price. It was a light oak color and seemed a little out dated, but I could see it's great potential and it's ability to meet our needs, so we picked it up.(wished I had gotten a before picture) I started sanding it, but after an hour, I was tired and cold. So there it sat in our garage for about a month. Then I had had it. I wanted it done and I wanted it done NOW!!!!!!! So for about the next three days, I was diligent in working on it any free chance I could get. I sanded, primed, and painted and painted again. We moved it downstairs and got it all set up. It seems to be a perfect fit and helps to hide the unsightly surround sound wires that have been taped to our walls and ceiling since Matt got them for Christmas. Anyways....so having that done made me want to get going on those curtains again. I finally remembered to bring a curtain with me to the store so I could match the fabric and then I went to work. I LOVE how they turned out! I am not a seamstress, but I can sew a straight line (well fairly strait), so it was a great project for me. Anyways, I know I asked many of you want I should do with the curtains and how do I refinish a piece of furniture, so I wanted to show you the end result!!! Next thing to save for......a nice big sectional.
