Kitchen Curtains - The Reveal

If you recall, there was a particular set of sheets destined to become new kitchen curtains.

Well I finished them this morning and, in my humble opinion, they totally rock.  I have three windows in the kitchen of my rental house.  One big, two small.

For the larger window, I made a traditional set of panels:

The fabric looks much more stripe-y hanging up, doesn't it?

I didn't want a whole stripe-y curtained kitchen, and I realized I probably woudn't appreciate all of the light filtering into the kitchen to have a yellow tint, so I decided to have a bit of fun with the other two smaller windows...

Pretty funky, huh?  I like that they turned out kinda modern looking.  Despite the fact that I don't know anything about mitered corners other than that I LOVE them, they were a success. 

*Sigh.*  Don't you just love mitered corners, too?

And for my readers who wonder what the kitchen looked like before we painted it:

It was yucky, yucky tan!  (The whole house was - gross!) And don't get me started on the nasty unpainted trim!  Anywho, much better with gray walls and white trim, nu?

Yay for gray and yellow, and new kitchen curtains.
