So, I received a couple comments on my last post about how cute my little house is. Thank y'all I really appreciate it. I absolutely love my little home and really like to keep it obnoxious frivolously festive, so it means a lot when people also think it looks decent.
However, I do have to point out two things that will totally discredit me from any sort of domestic talent praise.
1. I bought my home almost two years ago (20 months ago to be closer to exact,) and while I had the very sassy curtain rods and curtains before I even closed on the house, I have yet to put them up.
2. Now, that's not to say I haven't tried to put them up, because I have. It was August I think when I finally tackled the project and began getting out my girly tools and measuring. I attempted to screw in the first hook, mount, thingy, whatever it's called and let me tell you - IT. WAS. NOT. WORKING! I moved it around a bit, then tried doing it in a different spot, all the while trying to conceal my first hole I made in my wall. In 5 minutes, I got so damn frustrated, I just stopped trying before I was playing connect the dots on the wall, and I still didn't even have a bracket mounted. (That's it, right? Is it called a bracket?)

So here, I am ashamed to admit that this is how the wall remains today. Please notice the arrow near the top of the right window...that's pointing to the bracket that still dangles from my wall, a mere 5 months later! It adds a nice touch, ya think?
