Spice it up

want to know a cute, fun and easy... wait.. {fun} project to spice up your kitchen?? 
TRY ROMAN SHADES! 

here is the steps you need to know:
1) First find a FABULOUS person who can sew! (If you have a WONDERFUL mother in law like me then you don't have to worry about that )
2) Pick out some fabric. You will need a thicker fabric (upholstery fabric works great) and also some lining fabric to keep the sun from fading it.
 (side note: Hobby Lobby 40% off & Fields Fabric side-walk sales are the way to go!) 
3) Find a website that will help you with the details, measurement, layout, etc.  (We used Terrell Designs)
4) Start cutting- MEASURE TWICE, CUT ONCE! 
5) Sew material, string it, mount and wa-la!

So there ya' have it! Spice n' up the kitchen!
