Sooo, speaking of curtains from tablecloths, how about curtains from duvet covers?? My sister Kelsey (here and here) got this awesome idea from her, sister-in-law Heather. (Remember Heather? She did the front door monogram bucket!) These girls have great taste.

She used the stripe duvet cover from Target and made her own horizontal striped curtains out of it! I thought it was brilliant, AND they are on clearance in stores and online right now (looks like they are sold out) so I picked some up, you know…so I can try it out if I want to on an upcoming project. Just wanted to give you heads up before they are all gone. I got king size so I can have extra tall curtains. Thanks, Kels and Heather!

I came across these tablecloths this summer on Target clearance. My store only had 1, so I came home and looked online, and there they were! Hooray!

I’m trying to let me daughter guide this bedroom design and she loved them, they were canvas-y and pretty substantial so we were set! Or, so I thought. I completely forgot that the basement ceiling is high and that  84” curtains were not going to look great in there.

Hello and happy February! (Rabbit!) I figured I better share the rest of my winter décor with you before we break into spring~we’ll see what Mr. Groundhog has to say tomorrow. School is cancelled here AGAIN for a skiff of snow…this Montana girl just doesn’t get it.  Anyway, winter décor can be tough sometimes for me. I don’t want to spend a lot, but still want to enjoy the coziness and beauty of the season before it turns to slushy gray. This isn’t the skiff of snow, this is a few weeks ago:

Don’t you want to eat it? Doesn’t it look like it’s made of peep marshmallow hearts? :) Well, we think it does, that’s why it needs to be kept up high in this house.
