I am so, so excited to share the new curtains I have for in my kitchen! I found these red ticking curtains on ebay for a great price! They were really long and wide. My sister took the measurements I gave her and made me a new curtain for under my sink (plus an extra one in case that one gets ruined or needs washed etc.) and a new valance for above my sink! (Yes, I have dishes in the sink that I am washing. It was Thanksgiving dishes and I just wanted to take pictures to share...so it's real life, my friends!)
I love ticking and just love how these turned out! I am also *so* thrilled that there was enough leftover for a whole other curtain! I got them at a *great* price too, which is such a blessing (as fabric can definitely be pricey!)
And, although I took my camera to Thanksgiving celebrations...I had it off to the side and didn't even get it out. My cousin took a photo of us with her phone and sent it to me....so I can share this...
So that is me and my cousin Mariah :)
I gotta get going! I have cleaning to do here and then this evening is my niece, Audra's, 2nd birthday party! I can hardly believe she is TWO! She's a spit-fire and we just love her to pieces! We're looking forward to celebrating her life with everyone!
I hope your weekend is going well! Thanks for stopping by!
Warmly,
Katy

ReplyDeleteHello Katy, I also love that ticking material. It goes so well in your country kitchen! Years ago they made our pillows from that material. Getting ready for Christmas and decorating the house!

Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas! Your kitchen curtains are adorable. Nice find. I have the same silver bowl with the grippy black bottom as you. I found mine and a thrift store and was thrilled.
