Completed Netflix? It's time to revisit these classic films...
I was watching the old movie “To Catch A Thief” the other night which happens to be one of my favorites and started thinking that the dress worn by Grace Kelly would make a beautiful wedding gown. After doing a little searching I was so happy to discover that our good friend Veronica Sheaffer has made that exact dress. There is something so simple and elegant about the dress, much like Grace Kelly herself that I feel this dress would look stunning on anyone! I love the way this dress moves and seems to be timeless in its styling. To me I guess that is the essence of any good dress, that it can stand up to the test of time. Here is Veronica Sheaffer’s modern day construction of the classic Grace Kelly Dress. credits – visit Veronica Sheaffer for more information on her dress

Usually vibrant Emma Stone cut an uncharacteristically glum appearance on Friday afternoon as she continued to film La La Land in Hollywood.
I think if Scarlett O'Hara was in my place, this is what she'd have to say: source "As you fellow bloggers are my witnesses, I'll never make floor length curtains out of synthetic fabric again!" My 100% cotton dining room curtains were a snap to make, so I thought making floor to ceiling curtains for the bedroom would be easy, too. How very wrong I was. JoAnn Fabrics The only fabric I could find in the shade of yellow I wanted was an indoor/outdoor Better Homes & Gardens fabric called "Daffodil". It was on clearance for 60% off and I needed about 14 yards, so that sealed the deal. I cut the fabric, finished the edges and hung the curtains. That's when the problems began. The biggest problem was the lightweight quality of the fabric. It didn't have enough heft (even with a 5 inch hem) to drape nicely, so I tried a few tricks of the trade to train the curtains to behave. I steamed the folds, which seemed to be about as effective as taking a sip of hot coffee and blowing on the fabric. I tied them in position and left them overnight. The next day my curtains woke up with ponytail dents. I'm skimming right over the fact that I haven't finished painting the windows yet. source Then I clicked my heels together 3 times and wished I'd never bought the fabric. The darn fabric has the memory of an elephant, and no matter how hard I coaxed, it sprang right back to the shape it wanted to take! Just like my hair on a humid day. In the end, the curtains won the battle, so this is the way they will look......... for all eternity. Because I am NOT starting over. Thank goodness there isn't room for floor to ceiling panels on the other 2 windows! I'm hoping the window treatments I make for those windows won't be such a pain in the patootie. Pinterest/source unknown. Inspiration. Eventually we'll install plantation shutters on the bottom half of our double-hung windows, and I think the window treatment pictured above pairs well with shutters. If all else fails, I can always make myself a synthetic ball gown out of the curtains. source Next year's Halloween costume? I can only hope my next project goes without a hitch. After all, tomorrow is another day. Thanks for stopping by!
