Today has been a day of "Just doing it", to quote my friend, Ruby. This morning my husband and I took down the rest of the curtains and finished washing them and also completed washing the rest of the windows.
But we weren't content to stop there - the lounge room door has a small window above the door (photo on right), and during the winter it is so very cold here (down to -8°C) that we have had a piece of blind tacked up to keep the bitterly cold winter out.
When we purchased our curtains (at an op-shop, of course), there were three curtains which works perfectly for us, as we need two for the large window, and we have cut the other curtain to make two more - one above the door, and one to go onto the leadlight door to create a privacy screen at night time. The leadlight door that belongs here is currently in my daughter's bedroom, but eventually, after painting, it will make its home where the frosted door is now. The advantage of having the leadlight door is that it has a clear glass panel, and we can take advantage of the spectacular view from our loungeroom.
I'm not used to finishing the "spring summer cleaning" so early, but thanks to Ruby, who has adopted the motto, "Just do it", we just did it, and it is finished. Praise God for friends who inspire us to do our best!

I admire you summer cleaning in this heat! The curtain looks great though.
Hi Therese,
Thank you. :) We're going to be making some more for the leadlight door, soon.
Have a great week,

Hi Ruby,
Thank you for keeping us motivated, my friend. :D
Te motivation bug is contagious - now my husband has caught it. :P

Hi Aliadelaide,
Well, our home has ducted evaporative air conditioning, so we don't really notice the heat. :)
My husband helps, too, so that makes it much easier to accomplish things - he even helped with the curtain. :D
Have a great week,
Blessings,
Jillian
