They're stunning, understated and a perfect complement to their surroundings. What a pretty and playful way to welcome the new season!<br /><br />Have a wonderful week!<br /><br />Poppy@poppyview.blogspot.comPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7357970116996873579.post-1353385816549665532014-06-11T20:29:18.352-06:002014-06-11T20:29:18.352-06:00Your curtains are perfect!

The flood-pants curtains comment made me laugh! Good one. :) I just posted about my organic garden and my little flower pots. That's what I'm doing for this summer. :) The ants in our garden are not fire ants, luckily. A friend up north (3 and a 1/2 hrs. away) is having the same issue and it's almost a different climate (Much cooler) up there and the soil is a lot different from downstate as well. Must be a Michigan thing. She said they're not eating anything though. Maybe they haven't eaten anything in my garden as well. Anyway, hope you're having a great week! ~ JamieJamie @ Domestically Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15294774622917347262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7357970116996873579.post-7339488363554923422014-06-02T18:11:57.956-06:002014-06-02T18:11:57.956-06:00I really love your new curtains and how you were a...I really love your new curtains and how you were able to figure out a way to get the right size rod for your space.

Funny how it always seems to be a curtain rod issue, too. : ) Love the drapes. They are so pretty and look like they suit your family room perfectly. Love the wall of windows with the door to your deck.
