WIWW

Hi everyone! I did a little better at getting pictures this week ;) I had some of last week too, so this week is a mix of both!  I did try to keep Lindsey's challenge in mind, but failed :( I recently found a new (to me) store. It is Affection, their stuff is VERY affordable! The only drawback is that everything runs a little different, so I HAD to try everything on.

Grey top- Affection
Jean gauchos- Kohls
Necklace/earring set- Affection
Watch- Invicta

Close up of necklace :) On the side is a zebra, silver, & black bead.
    On the ring it has a couple black beads, cross, fleur-de-lis, wing. The earrings are smaller wings.
Black striped top- Affection
Trouser jeans- Aeropostale
Watch- Invicta
Same necklace set as above :)

Back view of shirt, love the button detail :)

Not sure whats up w/ the blurry pic!
White cami- Wal Mart
Black baby doll top- Old Navy
Cuffed jean capris- Old Navy
Keep calm necklace- Funky Vintage Lovely
Mum earrings- Angel Face Designs

Green tank- Aeropostale
Gray flower tank- Kohls
Jeans capris can't see- Old Navy

So overall I can't brake from my staple of some sort of jean bottoms! :) Oh well some habits just can't be broken! Have a great week! Thanks for stopping by :)

No sew burlap valance

Let me start by saying that this was a total on the spot quick project! It wasn't something that I had planned on doing, but once the summer sun was BLAZING through the bathroom window heating up the entire front part of my house I needed a quick fix! I went through my fabric stash and I had enough burlap for this small window, so that's what I went with :)
So here goes:

This is when the afternoon sun is coming through, HOT!

I started by measuring the window and allowing 2 extra inches on the sides, top
and bottom to place the stitch witchery for the "hem".  All you do is iron a crease
where the hem should be, place the stitch witchery in there and iron.  EASY PEASY!


Here is a close up. Once I hung it up it looked AWFUL with the sun coming through, so
I improvised with some canvas that I had. Of course I didn't have enough! lol.. Since there
was some space between the canvas & the hem I decided to make some fabric rosettes to fill
in some of the space. Although now that the shower curtain is up its not noticeable!

Close up of rosettes

After:  sigh..much better! Perfect? Not even close, but it works!
I probably will take it down this winter when its rainy & gray
for weeks. But I'm SO ready for that!! :)

And just because I always have distractions helpers!
