From Drab to Fab..................






I bought this truly vintage curtain panel at Savers for a dollar last Friday. I saw a hidden beauty immediately- I knew with a few snips and stitches I could make a whimsical little apron for myself. I love how it turned out and now I am on the lookout at every Junk store I enter for old curtains!!!! Who knew?

Reminds me of Julie Andrews in The Sounds of Music.

I agree, you little Maria! {Sound of Music} I love that Idea. Utah has such crappy thrift stores. I can't wait to visit Arizona and go shopping! I love what you have done!

I can't wait to see you in this in person, you are so adorable. I was just talking to my teenage neighbot nextdoor and he was showing off his pants that someone had made for him out of an old curtain. They were actually really cool, but not as cool as that apron you made. I absolutely love it! What next?
