A Succulent Porch is a Pretty Porch

Our bare porch was not pleasing to me.

However, I have a brown thumb (despite my last name)

Enter the succulent.

Hello ascetically pleasing porch! 

Some of my tools

corner plant shelf

I like this little rose-ish guy

This one looks promising too.

BABY PLANTER!

the guardians of the garden! I want to name them but I dont know what.
Any ideas?

 So much better. :D

Becky made us curtains! ...I helped...

I wanted curtains for our living room, but had no idea how to make them.

Becky knew how to make them.

We started a project.

After I chose fabric, Becky showed me how to measure out how much we needed and how to cut the fabric.

The she pinned the sides.

I pinned one side.

Then she Ironed the curtains.

I ironed one side.

Then we had a curtain rod fiasco.

But then it was OK.

THEN she added little strips of fabric to hold back the curtain when it was open.

Here is the smaller window. 

And the larger window.

Here is the little fabric strip.

Little pieces of Velcro were added because Becky is amazing.

She also attached two pieces of fabric together to create the large curtains. 

Becky! The designer and creator of  my lovely curtains.

Isn't she a lovely preg-o?

So,  now Becky's gone and I'm trying to recreate her method to make curtains for our bedroom.
I miss her.
