Ace and I had planned to spend Saturday driving down to Charleston to see the finals of the Family Circle Cup however the weather guy predicted rain so we stayed home in Charlotte. (P.S. I don’t think they even got a drop. Silly weather man.) Anyway, we spent the weekend doing home improvement stuff and it was so fun. Who knew doing stuff around your own house is so much more fun than having to help with chores when you were a kid.
First, Ace hung a curtain rod in the bedroom and we looked at about a million different curtains to match the blue in the bedspread and couldn’t find a darn thing. All the curtains were either too gray or too green. We went with a plain waffle textured white curtain to block out the morning sun but I don’t think they will stay for every long.
Second, we went to the fabric store and picked out new fabric for the dining room chairs. We inherited the chairs from family and they were a bit on the wild side so we changed the fabric to a green and brown check that ties the couches and the wood together. We weren’t sure if we liked the fabric when we walked out of the store but now we love it! And it was SOOOO easy to do.

I’ll keep you updated on all the other improvements we have in the works once they are finished, or at least started. ;)
