Sometimes I could just whack myself over the head with a rubber mallet for not making simple changes to my home that make it so much more pleasant to live in. For years I have been suffering living with curtains in my bedroom that my landlord put in.
I’ve never liked them. They are dreary and drab. I totally get why my landlord chose them, they “go” with everything and are unobtrusive, but that’s why I don’t like them. They suffer from what I call “beige”; they are BORING, bland, and blah. They aren’t even beige, they’re like ecru or eggshell or off-white, or some other fancy word for neither here nor there. Why oh why has it taken me years to change them?! Because I’m lazy I thought it would take effort and really it took just about no effort.
All I had to do was pick out a different set of window panels and hang them. I found these Allen + Roth curtain panels via Lowe’s and as soon as I swapped them out for the old curtains, I wanted to hit myself over the head with the aforementioned rubber mallet because I could have made this change YEARS ago. I guess I just didn’t realize that making such a small change in my home could be so darned satisfying.

Well, you are so right, it was a lovely change and such a simple one. Enjoy!
It’s so great to make those small changes that make such a difference. They look great!
Ah, tell me about it! My head is misshapen thanks to the number of times I’ve swotted myself for not doing an easy makeover much earlier than I did. 😀 Your transformation is lovely! 🙂
Nice change! My sister got her window treatments at Lowes. They have a really big selection.

Totally changes the feel of the room. Soon you’ll forget all about the beige blahs.
Small change, big difference! I love the new look!
Hello, my friend! How are you? So nice to see your lovely avatar. Missed you.
Hi! Doing good! Thanks! It’s good to be back in the blogging atmosphere. I’ve been gone too long.
When we moved into this house, I put white in our family room and I so LOVE it. It’s just enough to look complete without too much fluff. 🙂 Love it when a plan comes together!
Much better 🙂
