New Curtains!

I finally found some curtains for my dining room! I've been wanting some wine red curtains and was debating on making them, but hadn't decided for sure. In the Target ad this week, they had some curtain panels for $7 each. I went there and they were just the color I was looking for and the right kind of material. I didn't want satin or shiny material because it is a kitchen. I bought some curtain rods at Joanne's a while back. They were all 40% off. Then, at another store I found the hold backs for only $5. I got them half off too. So, for about $35 or so, I got to complete my dining area! Now, I just need to decide what kind of curtains to put up on the other two windows. They're smaller, so I can't decide if I want full-length ones or just a valence. I feel like my kitchen is finally coming together.

These are really bad pictures, but it's a hard area to photograph, plus with the light coming through the windows. But hopefully, you get the idea of what it looks like.

Here the flash is too bright and the color is off. It's a nice wine red, not the bright red you see here. Also, the pic is off centered. I didn't have my contacts in and then the camera battery died.

I want to put up some vinyl lettering above the curtains and on other walls. Probably some Italian phrases or words. I think that will look really cute.

Here is my latest scrapbook page. I really like this one and the color scheme. I got a new cricut cartridge and used it on this page.
