Curtain Indecision 2011

 You could tell me

that you prefer this set of Ikea KAJSA curtains

on the main floor gigantor windows

slung low and non-functional 

in front of the top |down blinds that almost ended my marriage.

Light, flowly, patterned, cheap ($29.99 for the pair).

or

you could tell me you prefer 

these horizontal close set striped ones.

That I would have to make.

Out of super heavy material.

That I didn't get enough

and can't get more of

because I'm not patient enough for my 5 followers

to scour their little town Joanne's to find me more

in their home decor fabrics

table of rejects.

 I should have known it was too heavy

And I was too cheap to get enough fabric to do it right.

I bought 3 yards

at $7 a yard.

Not bad, except that I don't have curtains out of them.

All to say it wouldn't matter what you told me

because I'm hard headed.

I went back to Ikea 

for the curtains I was looking for in the first place

and went something like this

 

Yes, eagle eyed observers.

I did indeed still use the first set of Ikea curtains.

LOVE where they ended up.

And how they ended up there.

But that's for another time.

The remaining indecision?

Should I stamp/stencil

these  bad boys up?

If yes, with what pattern?

I did cut off the tabs

and open up a slit of the hem on the top of the panel

to slide my rods through.

Tabs, so not my friends.
