curtains

This is the bathtub nook in our bathroom--the tiles are an ugly peach color, and there's a somewhat tacky plastic insert that covers sits on top of the tiles.  The bathtub, as pictured in the previous post, is also not in good shape.  We decided early on that we would use the area as storage and use the shower, which is in a separate stall, for bathing.  We thought about putting up a shower curtain, but decided that the blinds we got from Ikea would look better--i.e., less plastic.

I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out!  We'll keep cleaning supplies in the tub.

I also hung this curtain on the bathroom window today--very plain, keeps things bright.

And I hung curtains in the bedroom.  The blue is really not that bright--I just couldn't figure out how to get the lighting right for the picture.  The curtains here are a basic beige.

This is just to show the detail of the curtain rod--we got the kit at Ikea and thought it fit our bedroom well.  We call it the Oxford room--Greg studied abroad there and has some pictures that we're going to hang, and something about the deep blue seems to fit.
