Curtain Tie Back

Here's a recap of my bathroom curtain project - The old valance that I wanted to replace...

The new curtain made from osnaburg...

New curtain with ripped piece of osnaburg for a tie back.  Thanks to those of you who suggested this option.  I really like how it looks. 

Doesn't light make a huge difference in how things look?   The first two pictures were taken at night time and the third one was during the day.  Everything in the bathroom looks pale during the day.

Just rearranging a few things around the house...

 To finish this post, I have a confession to make - I am not always the most organized person!  I usually know where something is, but I do end up with stacks like this one on top of the fridge...

Everything up here is school related, schedules, sports, etc.  I don't have a desk to work from at home and I just make sure that anything related to the kids goes up here.  I also am not a "clean front" fridge person.  I have photos of my own kids and kids that have been in my class, plus pictures of my nieces and nephew, a highschool basketball schedule, a baseball schedule, etc hanging on the front.  

In an effort to make things a little tidier, I used this wooden pop crate to contain all my important papers.  I bought this off ebay a couple of years ago, paid more for shipping than I did for the crate itself and haven't ever used it!   

I will probably never have a "clean front" on the fridge but organizing it looks a little better.  The things on the front make me smile when I look at them. These mementos always help get my day off to a bright start. 

We're off to (probably) our last basketball game of the season.  Our Highschool team starts playoffs tonight - shhh...I don't think they will win - so we will be done!  ~Ann
