Window Treatments

I'm looking to do a similar look in our bedroom and upstairs loft. But I can't seem to find any off the rack that aren't uber tacky. I love all of these--but I worry they are custom. I don't sew...do you think these would be easy to pull off if I paid someone off craigslist?

Car Problems

So I recently got a new car that I am absolutely in love with. Except for the fact that...it doesn't work. We got a 2011 Lincoln MKX--the one with the commercials with the guy from Mad Men? I wanted it because of all the cool tech stuff. It has a touch screen, your pic shows up when you call me, a calendar, 3D navigation, ambient lighting that you can customize ( I love the pink), voice controls for everything and oh so much more. But, from day one, I've had issues. I am this close to calling a lawyer about the lemon law. I'm at the end of my rope and I might have to slip it over my head. So just a warning for anyone considering purchasing one--wait a few years till they have worked out the bugs.

End Table, End Table...There you are!!

It finally came! And I think it really works in the space. I need to get some drapes and some more art and a slip cover for our ugly tv stand. And then MAYBE, we'll be done!
