What am I doing today?…

…well, I’m attempting to make my first roman shade.  I’m a little nervous, but mostly excited.  I picked up this roman shade kit from JoAnns (using a a 40% off coupon, of course).

 

I’m using this lovely robin egg blue fabric.  The color is amazing!

The roman shade will replace the blinds that we currently have in the kitchen.  I’m working on framing out the window and then I’ll mount the shade on the inside.

I’ll share a full tutorial on the shade once I’m done.  Wish me luck!
