Dirty blinds. Dirty cord on the left. |
Slippery Slope: I now know the meaning of that.
Before |
Washing windows meant cleaning the floor meant painting the walls meant painting the ceiling meant painting the woodwork meant getting rid of the mini blinds.
Old mini-bling hardware removed. Ready for sanding, filling the localized painting |
Some measuring and a rather quick trip to my favorite store meant that some stitching, some ironing, some removing of old dirty blinds, some hole filling, some touch up painting, some drilling, some attaching were all Things I get to do today.

The end result feels great, and it feels like it is the bottom of the slope, which would be the end, as in "Curtains."
Are you sure you're done? No slipcovers? Maybe a tea cozy.
ReplyDeleteNice job.
Well, I had thought about the the tea cozy. And one of the chairs could be recovered. Maybe the carpet could be replaced.
DeleteBut for now, thanks! I think it is done.
Gosh- that is a lot of work! But when its all done- just take a sighhh, and plop into the chair.

I'm headed to the softest chair I can find. Maybe I'll curl up in it and take a nap. It took some time, but it was really fun, too!
Deletespeaking from experience-the slope will now get slippery and after your nap you'll look up and find something else that will lead to another thing! been there, am there,
