My life is one big jumble of kids, pets, crafts, friends, food, home and business.

Super awesome tween room

Tea decided she was ready for a room makeover so we are trying to create a fun, cool, artsy, totally Teag room on a budget.

After months of her laboring over the choice of paint we finally ended up with Wild Grape walls. It ended up being the perfect color and she LOVES it. Now we needed something for the windows. Curtains are kinda pricey, especially anything in fun, bright colors and designs. We came up with the idea of using sarongs. While searching for a curtain rod one of my crafty friends suggested a bamboo pole.

It worked perfectly and fits the feel of the room so much better than a formal rod would have.

bamboo pole from Lowe's - under $5
3 sarongs from turtle island imports - $11.95 each (your window size determines how many you need)
and hot pink twine that we already had but I know it's just a few dollars

and here was the result....
