I was having a hard time deciding which one i liked better.
The chevron was bold and edgy and more expensive while the dots were classic and whimsical and cheaper. So as you probably already read on the instagram photo i went with the Dots, since they are magical in all {at least urban outfitters thinks so}.
Where is this curtain going to be going?
My bathroom duh:
HAHAHAHAHAHA horrible paste over but whatever you get the idea.
The light weight aspect of the fabric might be a con for some, but for me in this space it is going to be amazing! I NEED more light in here {even considered frosting the window} but also need privacy since my house backs up to the neighborhood pool. So this is the perfect solution.
Before i hang up the shade I still need to SAND {yuck}, prime, and paint the bathroom.
I’m hoping to hang the curtain higher than the current one so it will give the room some much need height. I’m also planning to get an xl shower curtain to use and add some shelves on the wall that the door is covering. So we’re getting there, but i’m EXCITED!

Back to my trolling…
I started seeing some really cute prints like these:
Polka Whales…
I have some new additions to share…
…well ok they aren’t actually with me yet, but they are mine.
If we’re friends on Instagram you would know that i begged asked for some help last week:
. . .
I had been trolling through Urban Outfitters Apartment Sale {you know just in case they had something super cute that i most definitely couldn’t pass up…and i was torturing myself with so many of the pretty things} and found myself drawn to these lovely curtains:
Cute, right?
Not as cute as the one i landed on.
Yup i had a miniature freak out.
You don’t grab your lips into a duck face when you freak out? Well aren’t you weird.
Ok, i guess it’s time i showed you the print.
Since.
You’ve.
Been.
Patient.
See what i did there? ha.
I’m not sure if you can read what it says, so i’ll help you out:
“It’s round Cape Horn we’ve got to go, chasing whales through ice & snow.”
I LOVE WHALES.
I’m thinking of hanging it up in this area…but that can always change.
OH SNAP, i just got an email letting me know it has shipped!
I can’t wait to have both of these within my grasp!
Here’s to hoping that when i open that package i still have the giddy excitement i do after ordering them, i’ll keep you posted!
. . .
I must also say that this weekend was spent 90% laying down, sitting down, or rolling around.
I did take a break from being lazy to go to a beautiful wedding of two amazing people on Saturday, and man was it a worship filled experience. This cold has gotten a little worse and i’ve been watching Frasier (starting at season one) to cheer me up. Such a fantastic show…i’m sure Maria & Bo were sick of it, but i wasn’t…oh no, i wasn’t.
Speaking of Bo, he leaves for school today.
So if you wouldn’t mind please keep him in your prayers as he travels.
. . .
How was y’alls weekend.
Haha! Next time I get excited I'll have to try out the duck face. I really like that "Grow where you are planted" print. I think it would be perfect for us since we're always moving. Pinned it!
Me gusta! That whale print is perfect for you!
Haha- I love that duck face. I just moved into a new apartment and have been on a search for decorating tips. I'm glad I found your blog!
Oh hoooray! That curtain is SUPER cute! And such a good deal! It will look great in your bathroom! And I'm glad you found a print you love. 🙂
OMG hahahaha. You are SO CUTE. I love the print, i love the odd cut/paste of the curtain, and the curtain itself.
Also, HOW WAS I NOT FOLLOWING YOU ON IG?!? I had no idea. I fixed it, though.
hahahahha you craaaack me up. I love reading your posts which are part heart part funny and part stream of conciousness. I'm pumped that you went with the gold dots, i was rooting for that one as I read. And the whales print is great, let me know if you find anything with a panda and I will do my freak out face which a bit more ridiculous than yours
