You can do it, Carol! Just remember to let your soul be part of whatever you want your house to look like, then you won’t regret it. Good luck! :)<br /><br /><a href="http://synergyrealtyspokane.com/" rel="nofollow">Miguel Mcdonald</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02466600794688386695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6070594626831628500.post-35154210693211492112012-09-14T06:35:45.126-04:002012-09-14T06:35:45.126-04:00Now take your fabric prices (and pretty much every...Now take your fabric prices (and pretty much everything else), multiply that with any number between 1.5 and 3, then you get the prize for fabric here. The only decent store in my area is Fabricville and sometimes they don't carry what I have in mind....<br />Happy weekend,<br />SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08225697865118974458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6070594626831628500.post-55621905781277167332012-09-13T11:19:30.072-04:002012-09-13T11:19:30.072-04:00Hi Sue - Yes, I've seen the idea of putting f...Hi Sue - Yes, I've seen the idea of putting fabric on the wall with fabric softener (but have you seen the price of fabric lately - unbelievable!) I've been looking for sheets that I like the pattern on (and can afford) to make curtains for the master - but so far, that hasn't happened - so I'm thinking of going a different direction - but I'll save that idea for a future post. And thanks for the sweet compliment - we will have to wait and see how pretty it turns out.<br />Hope you have a fabulous rest of the week!<br />Hugs -<br />CarolCarol https://www.blogger.com/profile/17128634602955515555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6070594626831628500.post-77154601810894205352012-09-13T11:15:06.967-04:002012-09-13T11:15:06.967-04:00Thanks Loretta - We thought we had found a differe...Thanks Loretta - We thought we had found a different place that was bigger and was on the canal to the lake, but it was furnished and the owners did not want to put the furniture in storage (even though we volunteered to pay for the storage). Oh well. So, we found this place the weekend before we had to move - sorta short notice. You are right - I'm sure the hubs will be reminding me numerous times in the next few months.

Then 2 rentals in Ontario, where floors and walls had to stay, both so not my colors. Happy to live in a house now, where I can tackle my project as I please, but my oldest moved away for her Masters and she rents, hmpf....I once saw a suggestion on the internet, someone taped pretty paper (gift wrap, shelf liner?)with scotch tape onto the kitchen doors, actually turned out nice. Another tip I found while looking for ideas for her, is to "glue" fabric on the walls with corn starch, supposedly it peels right off. I'm sure, you'll make it pretty for the time being!<br />Hugs, SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08225697865118974458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6070594626831628500.post-58530135067977727502012-09-12T19:30:24.477-04:002012-09-12T19:30:24.477-04:00First, congrats!

Waiting to see you all moved in! Your hubby will no doubt keep reminding you when you have to hang pics, etc. Ugh! Take care...<br />LorettaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14457976530332166377noreply@blogger.com
