Browsing the Blenheim ReUse shop (as I do every time I go to town in the hope I will score a suitable shower tray/base for our cabin ensuite) I did score this curtain.
$10. It jumped out at me - rich colour that would add depth and contrast to all that light wood. I still love it now that it's hanging up. (phew)
It must have come from a remarkable house; it's length was twice the height of our doors. I cut it to length, hemmed by hand, and will use the off-cut to make folding blinds for the windows.
Today it's raining outside. Scully is asleep on the bed beside Mr B (her towel lying discarded in the doorway), and I'm knitting a lined beanie hat - red inside, camo-green outside.
The water tank is refilling nicely.
4 paws up from Beau and 2 thumbs up from me, on Scully on the bed, he he he and LOVE that Curtain. It is Perfect! thanks for another view of your home...

ReplyDeleteThat's a winner! Getting proper cosy... YAM xx
That all sounds quite cosy, especially now with those rather fetching curtains at the door.
ReplyDeleteThe curtain will provide great insulation and with matching blinds you will be as snug as a bug in a rug.
ReplyDeleteThe colours in the curtain enhance the whole room. And how cosy it all looks. You've worked so hard and made an awesome home
ReplyDeleteGreat bargain. Yes it really does set off all that timber beautifully
ReplyDeleteAnd enough for some blinds. Not bad for ten dollars
Those curtains are going to keep the warmth in over Winter, great find.
