I love it when I am able to make such a dramatic change in a room for $5! I found these extra long pink and white striped ...satin....fully lined drapes for $5 at a yard sale Friday. |
Pictures don't do these drapes justice. They are so heavy and luxurious.....what a find! |
The drapes were long enough that I was able to puddle them on the floor. |
Before....white curtains ......................................................................Now, pink & white stripe. |
I have used some pink and white stripe in the other areas of the family room, |
I added some pictures along the window sill....just to give it a little different look to the area. The two pictures on the right end of the sill are new yard sale purchases too. |
They are small unframed oils that I picked up for $3 each. |
I made a table runner out of pink and white doilies..... |
These two pillows were purchased at a yard sale Saturday..... |
Penny! I love the added pops pf color!! The curtains are stunning and really make a statement in the room. Love the runner of doilies! And the colors in the pillows. The oils are drop dead gorgeous! You always find the most amazing things!!

A wonderful find! I love the table runner also!
ReplyDeleteWOW - those drapes are absolutely gorgeous!!!! You find the best treasures - they look beautiful in the room.
ReplyDeleteYou do find the most wonderful sales, I just love the new look, the curtains are lovely with the lace and flowers in the window too, Beautiful touch, I have some pink and white doilies my mother in law made me years ago, such a blessing to have them now that she has passed.
ReplyDeleteI probably would have passed them up...and been an idiot for doing so. I need living room drapes..but because of all the prints I've stuck to the cream. One never knows until they are up...and those look fantastic, Penny!! We went the sales this weekend too...but only got a few small things. I've already given away two of them. :) Daughter in law took a measuring cup home..very old...and a crock for spoons. I managed to keep my adorable little flour sifter. I have to wonder if it is a salesmans sample.. You did GREAT.
ReplyDeletep.s. Of all your pretties, and you have a lot, my very favorite thing..is that little pig. Over in the corner. I look for him every time you post..or rather it's probably a "her"...anyway...I covet that precious piggy!!! :)
ReplyDeleteYour pink and white stripe curtains are beautiful. I love them. You have a beautiful home, and you find some amazing things at yard sales. I also like the doilies you have on the table. Very pretty. Thanks for sharing. Karie
ReplyDeleteLove the curtains and love the little piggy in the background! :)
