Kitchen Improvement

The breakfast area in our home was less than appealing with the quick fix valance I had purchased at Lowes when we moved in. It was due to my OCD. The window was so bare and I had no idea what I really wanted so the $30 valance sufficed for a year. I was so excited to rip it down that I forgot to take a picture. Don't worry though, you're not missing anything special.

I have been eyeing this Dwell Studio fabric for some time and knew it's what I wanted in the space.

 I didn't want a valance though, so I opted to make short drapes that hit right at the window seat. For a tutorial on how I made them go here.

Next, I'm recovering that seat cushions in this coordinating Dwell Studio fabric. 

It will be a huge improvement from the stained, chocolate suede that's on them now. 

So, what do you think of the curtains? You likey? Me likey! Husband even agreed they were an improvement.
