Check this out!! I found fabric that pulled the paint color as well as my accent color together (i honestly wasn't to thrilled about the fabric at frist but the price was reasonable and my mother-in-law reassured me that it would look fine). my sister-in-law, Kellan, and i found the beads at Micheals that had the exact colors, red, gold, and black to pull it all together again! i was super excited to finish them last night; although i was short 7.5 inches of beads...that is a funny story. they sold a big pack of beads and a little one. i bought two little ones, came home and realized that was not nearly enough. so i went back, returned the two little ones and bought the big one. came home continued on with the project over the next couple of days. well, i thought i was going to be smart - no comments- and before i started the big one in the kitchen window i would measure if i had enough. well, i measure with out numbers. i realize this would have saved me a whole bunch of time and wasted gas. i laid out the beads i had left on the window seal and saw that i needed maybe 12 more inches. so i drove back to Micheal's and bought one more little one. and end of story i'm short 7.5 inches because my curtains are not the exact "size" of the window; they are longer to create the curve effect. anyway, i'm not even going to re-read that to see if it makes sense. enjoy my work! you might just have to come and visit because these pictures don't show the true effect.
