But instead the looked horrible! and that ok looking curtain rod from Walmart? looked really cheap on the wall. So I pulled everything down and took back the curtain rods. I found the curtains above for cheaper than I had spent on fabric and rods for less than the ugly Walmart ones at IKEA! Fortunately, my windows are narrow enough I only need one pkg of curtains. I just cut each pannel in half and hemmed the sides. Volia!
Oh and another reason I love IKEA, I got Will a really cute stuffed snake for $0.49 :)
You can't really tell because of the lighting but our walls are now a platinum gray. It was my first painting experience and my first non white wall. Danny gave me a Lowe's gift card for Christmas and told me I could pick any color even pink with purple polka dots. (He wasn't too fond of the painting idea.) I think he's converted now!
