Seeing Pink

I don't know if its because Valentine's Day is right around the corner or what, but I'm really into pink and want to make a new curtain for my kitchen with some fun pink fabric. Ah, yes I just have to convince the BF that this is a grand idea and that pink is cool- but I'll work on him later.


(the first fabric pictured is from Rubie Green. If you have never checked out the awesome site before, I suggest you take a look HERE. Michelle Adams is the talented designer behind these amazing eco-friendly fabrics, all of them are so beautiful)

So this is what the curtain in the kitchen looks like now... keep in mind we are in a rental- the blind is from the landlord. And, actually we have neighbors very, very close so it comes in handy to shut them out. Also, I have a few more plants in the window there, otherwise I would have done a cafe curtain.

Anyway, this little green and white number is something I whipped up when we moved in and because I have design ADD, its time to make something new. Good thing it only takes about a yard or less so its an easy, cheap re-do.

I was thinking I might try to make a faux roman shade type thing. I would sew a panel of fabric about twice the length here and then pin it up to make it look like a roman shade, but it would obvi not go up and down like a real one.

Any thoughts on this? Any other suggestions on what to make?
