JULIE:
Here are the curtains that I have in Aiden's room! When we moved into our house, he was 21 months old and we tried to create a more big-boy room for him than his nursery at our previous house. Being in my third trimester and moving to a new town where I didn't know a single soul, I knew I had to make something really simple as I didn't have a lot of time or extra hands to do all the things that we needed to do after moving in! So I created these no-sew ribbon curtains to match his decor in Aiden's room and they work just perfectly in his room:)
When I was pregnant with Aiden, I found the "Zoo" pattern by Dwell Studio on 75% clearance at Target---and I snatched it right up because I just loved it:) The curtains were long panels, but I really wanted to make cute little valances so I could have a lot of natural light in our room. So my super-smart sewing mom created two of these out of the one curtain...aren't they adorable (and all for a small price of three dollars total)? I ended up reusing them for Andrew and match perfectly to our baby blue walls!



I love it! I'm trying to create a nursery now that a) I can accomplish being 35 weeks preggo and b) doesn't make big brother feel displaced when he comes to visit. It's a conundrum.
