Friends and Shower Curtains

First of all,  you can find me over at The Eclectic Traditionalist today sharing some tips on getting started with a creative business.  Katelyn writes one good, honest blog, and dabbles in bit of everything.  Her blog is very refreshing, and I love it- you will, too!

Secondly, I haven’t mentioned my shower curtain in a looooong time!  Remember this guy?
Thomas Paul - SC-0105-CHR - Bath Octopus Shower Curtain in Charcoal
I ordered it from CSN stores a long time ago, and it was due to be delivered on St Patty’s day, which takes place on March 17th.  Well, a couple emails and telling me it would be delayed again and yet again, it FINALLY arrived on June 13.  Yes, you read that right.  I was pretty bummed about that.  Also, the color was listed as charcoal, and I assumed the background was a slight off white from what I could tell from the photo.  It is an ivory or cream in person and does not work with our white tile.  So I am just hanging onto it and hoping it will work in our next house.  Big fat bummer.


BUT, I did want to say a word about where I won my CSN stores gift card in the first place to order this.  It was from the lovely Michelle of Every Little Thing…. Inspired.  Michelle is super cute, and super talented and I have followed her from way back when.  You really need to go check out her blog and find yourself inspired…. Here is a dose of her projects…

So go over and say hi to both Katelyn and Michelle today, and make a new friend!

    I’m really digging that shower curtain. I hope you find a way to make it work in the new house. Speaking of the new house…can’t wait to see it!

    Oh, that is such a bummer! To wait all that time and it won’t work. Well, maybe it will later. It’s too cool to give up on!

    This happens to me all of the time. I really should stop ordering stuff off of the internet….
    Make sure you base your next house decision off of the shower curtain. 🙂
