Pictures in frames?! ...this is a big deal!

Well, I have this bad habit of not putting pictures up or hanging curtains because I never know how long I'll be in one place.

But I'm putting my foot down. I'm changing my ways. I will try not to think about the fact that it is possible I'll have to buy all new fabric in 6mos or else look for somewhere to live that has window exactly the same dimensions! Well, maybe I should give the curtain idea another month... besides maybe by then we'll have news of moving plans

But the pictures are a really good first step... right?!

Pictures are easier to change than wall paper and painting. I packed up some pick and put them in permenant storage this time. I've decided that I'm not going to do that anymore. From now on, since we are military and move often as well, our pix will be our wallpaper. I'll line the living room with the same pix at each house and maybe it will make each house seem like home! The kids have their rooms similiar each time too. Curtains...yea, that's more work. The bedrooms all have them, even our garage, but the living room still needs some. It's the most undecorated room of our house. *sigh* I'll make you deal, I'll not put curtains up if you don't. He he.

I use an adjustable curtain rod and then buy a large amount of fabric. instead of sewing the fabric, I just drape it around the rods and let it hang down on either side of the window. Secure with large safety pins. The great thing is that the pins are hidden, I can reuse the material for anything since I didn't sew it, and it will fit various window dimensions.

But I don't want to get you off track. Pictures are a GREAT start, my friend!

We are military so I know what you mean! I haven't even finished unpacking and got a call yesterday, my husband has decided we are moving across the country on tuesday.lol We are keeping most of our stuff here, but I got to thinking, hmm if I haven't unpacked it yet then we probley can store it for another year, so it should not be to hard to pack again.lol I gave up on curtains and pics, most the ones I have that make each move go up and the curtains I tack about the windows and fold to fit.lol
