LOVE THE NEW DISHES IN THE HUTCH. THEY REALLY BRIGHTEN UP THE SPACE. NICE JOB .THE CURTAINS LOOK WONDERFUL.. ANOTHER GREAT JOB. ENJOE THEM AND SMILE WHEN YOU WALK INTO THE ROOM
Hi Becky, the vintage fabric is just gorgeous and made beautiful window coverings!! The colors just make you smile! If the length does bother you, try rehanging them through the top "ruffle" if you can. I had to do that with one set that shrunk even in cold water and air dried. The sunflower plates look terrific in your hutch, what a great find.
Beautiful !!!! Bedroom is gorgeous 🥰🥰 The living room looks better than I thought it would Your giving me ideas Becky😎
The plates on the wall look great. I love them there. The curtains in look so pretty in both rooms. I'm so glad you had enough fabric to do both. Make your home your happy place. I've noticed a lot of KZread creators saying that lately. ❤😊
Curtains look great. Do what makes you happy in your home!😊❤
Great job with your curtains,reminded me of the first pair we bought when we moved into a flat not long married...'77 - 78. Your home is unique decorate it how you like it and what makes you happy😃. Take care 😁

The curtains all turned out great! And no, I don't think the ones in the bedroom are too short.
Love the curtains and no they aren't too short at all.
Love the curtains so much so cozy
Oh wow Becky…I absolutely LOVE it! It goes so well with the plates on the wall. You could go flower shopping at Hobby Lobby and maybe find a few matching flowers you could tuck here and there 🌻
The sunflowers are so pretty. For the curtains, it's so easy to take a seam ripper and rip out what you did. You could make the pattern go the right way and if you skipped the ruffle on the top you'd have a longer curtain. You could even make the casing on the top out of a neutral fabric. It wouldn't show on the back and they'd be long enough. The edge of the fabric is called the selvedge. Really enjoy your videos.
Absolutely NOT too much (wall plates) ❤️❤️. I love it and it brings you joy ❤️❤️❤keep them on your wall
Oh, I love it! I'm so glad you had enough for both rooms. And the length is perfect because nobody can really see beside the bed and behind the couch. 😂 Great job! Thank you for sharing! ❤
Wow Becky the hutch to your curtains look absolutely gorgeous! Love it all the length is fine .. glad you had more fabric for the living room... 😍🌻💛.
Oh those curtains turned out beautifully. It's your home leave up or take down. Do what makes you n your husband happy. Have a wonderful weekend.
Girllll I absolutely love your beautiful home! I don’t know what I love the most though, it’s just awesome! You’ve inspired me to display my stoneware plates! My aunt came by the other day and told me that all my dishes remind her of my mama because she had all the plates! We lost my mama last year and my goal in my home is to collect all the things she loved so every room here reminds me of my childhood and my mama❤ thank you for all you share with us
Becky, I love the curtains in both rooms! Just lightens the room and makes them sunny cheerful like you❤

Curtains look fantastic
Omg it looks beautiful!!!!! You gave the rooms a nice pop..Love it
I love the new curtains and the new sunflower dishes.😊
Beautiful! I'm totally envious of your sewing skills 😊
I am in love with the new curtains. So lovely.
Absolutely love everything!!! If you’re wanting to add a little more length to your curtains you can take the rod out of the pocket and use curtain rings and that will make them fall lower. I did this with a set of curtains and it made a big difference. But they are lovely just like they are! Great job! 🌼✌🏼🧡😊
You did a fantastic job on your drapes and they do look great in both rooms. I have a couple of suggestions on the light coming through and the length. We have blinds in a number of our rooms and I have found that if you close the blinds in an upward position it keeps more light out. No will be able to see in from outside. On the length, since the hems can’t be seen, you could take out bottom hem and make it a narrow shirt tail hem. Second option is taking material to fabric store to quilting section and matching background color . Make approximately a 4” wide band to sew to bottom to make length you want. Band should be straight piece, not gathered. Greatly enjoy your videos. Hugs

Thank you Melinda those are all great ideas. I still have some tweaking to do for sure.
No I like the dishes on the wall. It says you are a collector and it's amazing how many different patterns go together. I am amazed that you have found that go together/ that are similar. It's you and your taste. I am amazed so many old patterns go together and you have been able to collect. You go girl.

Wow your hutch looks absolutely Gorgeous! Love it all the vintage fabric for your curtains are beautiful they top it all off 😍🌻💛.
I like the way the curtains look in both rooms. I had thought that the pattern might be a bit too much for the bedroom, but now that it's up and we can see the pattern, it looks great. You can always use 4 panels in one room if you decide to change a set of drapes later. You couldn't go wrong here. 🧡💚💛 I love the way the hutch looks with your new plates. I would use something other than plates on the wall, but if you like it, it's fine. 🌻
I really do like the curtains in the LR and BR! They turned out beautifully. 😃
The curtains look beautiful, Becky 👍
Perfect fabric/pattern for curtains. Looks fantastic!
Turned out really beautiful

It looks beautiful. ❤
Becky, you done great with the curtians..I used to make all of our curtians; when we were 1st married, we couldn't afford to buy any..so I done the best I could do with what we could afford..now that we are financially able to buy them, I still choose to thrift them..i just a new set for our master bedroom..first brand new set in years..lol..we have huge windows, and the sun is brutal in the summer, and the cold weather is brutal too...i was so happy when I found enough curtians for all 3 windows, less than 15.00..lol..I love to thrift as many items as I can..lol..thanks for sharing with us.
Beautiful 🌼🌻🧡💛🤎
Nice job on the curtains👍🏻
Great job on the curtains, Becky! 🌼
Your hutch looks beautiful. So much brighter 😊
I love the dishes on the wall. ❤️
Hi Becky- I'd never have known the pattern on the curtains was upside down- they came out great! Looking forward to the wallpaper you chose.
Becky I LOVE the dishes and I'm really liking those vintage curtains.. you are so my soul vintage sister ..LOL.. I have the same owl canisters and the same backspkash , I'm an amber collector.... I love old pmates and old pots and pans... lime you say I like sprinkles of 70's throughout my home with those golds, oranges & browns.... you are an amazing decorator ...love the curtains especially in the bedroom..I'd put something flowery and more yellow-ish in the living g room as you have more yellows than oranges in it..either way it ALL looks great
So pretttty 😊
Oh my goodness Becky, the curtains are absolutely beautiful! You are so talented! Also, the plates look gorgeous in your beautiful hutch, and I don't think the plates next to your hutch are too much, they are perfect there. Everything is just wonderful, I love it all! What a great video, thank you! 🌻🦉❤🦉🌻
I love the curtains, you are a very talented lady 😊

I know Tammy, I can’t believe I lucked up and found a whole set of those perfect dishes. I still smile every time I look at them.
They look beautiful. Great job !!!
Everything turned out so pretty great job on the curtains. I think they look beautiful. The space that you have in between the floor and the window. I think it looks nice. Great job.😊…..🌻
Hey Becky. Love the curtain fabric! If you want to add a few more inches in the bedroom, maybe put the rod through the top pocket and eliminate the ruffle. Just a thought.
Your curtains turned out great and I would have never guessed the pattern was upside down. You are the motivation I needed because I have a bathroom DIY that involves sewing and I’ve been putting it off. Who am I kidding, I’ll probably just end up using hem tape. 😂 With the sunflower dishes in the hutch, if it were me, I would take down the dishes on the wall. Or if you like having dishes there, maybe put some of your mom’s dishes there, like a plate and the platter, so there aren’t so many competing patterns. But it’s all about what’s pleasing to your eye.

I see nothing wrong with hem tape. Do what makes the project unstressful for you and where you will enjoy doing it. Sometimes I end up sucking the joy right out of a project because I get too stressed out about it being perfect.
Becky I love your curtains! They are perfect!
The curtains go beautifully in the bedroom and add nice color in the family room. I think the shorter length in the bedroom is good so they don’t get caught by your feet or the sweeper when vacuuming.

I’m glad they don’t look too bad because I really don’t want to have to redo them. The short length isn’t bothering me too much either although I may take them out of the pockets and use curtain clips to lengthen them a little.
The curtains look beautiful! Great job!😍
Hey Becky, Just dropping in to say the hutch and curtains are great and so your style! Being a teenager in the 70s, I Love your channel, its like visiting with a friend. As for the length of the curtains, don't worry about it too much : A. You can't see the shortness really from most views, B. They wont get dusty on the bottom, and C. Easy to vacuum or sweep under them without them getting in the way, Enjoy😊
I sewed curtains for my daughter and they were a little short also. We found some beautiful lace and added it, turned out really nice.

It's beautiful. I'm a sunflower person as well.
If there to short you can put the rod through the top hole on the drape and not have a header. Lots of drapes are not having headers now. They are very pretty. Good job.
Love your curtains

Looks really good

Wow what a difference. Looks wonderful. You could add solid piece to bottom to add length
Beautiful.
Loving it.
Love your home!
The dishes really brightened your hutch up. Beautiful! Love your curtains! Could you add a band at bottom if it bothers you too much? - watching from Lake Wales, Florida
Great job!!!
I love your plates and how your hutch looks, so pretty! Your curtains are lovely. I’ve ended up with shorter curtains before and I tried curtain clips which dropped them lower, just a thought! :) Have a great weekend, ❤

I LOVE the blue and white plates used for decor, they are so pretty. My sister in law collects Currier and Ives and she uses them all over her home also. I could look at them all day.

Line the curtains with a light muslin. You can add a band of a color from the print on the bottom.

I can't wait to see these curtains when you finish and hang then . The plates on the wall are a little distracting. BUT it's your home so do what makes you happy 😊. Oh boy good job on curtains . Love them .❤❤
Run the curtain rod through to ruffle pocket to make them longer.
The curtains are oerfect in both rooms and really liven things up. To get a little more length, you might turn the panels upside down and use curtain clips to hang them instead of having the rod pocket.

If the dishes bring you joy on the wall, they are not too much. Maybe remove a couple of them and space the rest where they are not so close together. Isn't sewing such a useful skill to have? I am so glad my mother taught me to sew. The curtains are gorgeous! I know you will enjoy having them in both rooms. Have a great visit with Lily! ❤

I like them in the bedroom but not so much in the living room. But its your home if you love them that's all that matters.
