Curtain Conundrum

I like both of these living rooms and here's why:

The curtains.

(Plus, I have that acrylic coffee table,

and whenever I spy something I have in a room decor shot,

I feel proud and smug.)

So back to the curtains.

They really pull a room together and make it feel cozy and loved.

My mom made me beautiful, handmade curtains

with fabric we picked out together for my move out west.

They really jazz up my little bachelorette pad.

But, I've quickly discovered that the problem with living in a bachelorette pad is...

being an actual bachelorette and trying to mount curtain rods alone.

It's tricky.

And yes,  blah, blah women and empowerment and being independent.

No.

This project requires a boy that knows about things

that happen during Home Depot seminars.
