I'm stil cool . . . er . . .right?

I was shopping at Trader Joes and a young twenty something store employee stopped me, "Mam", she said, (Mam?? is she really talking to me? mam??) "where did you get your cardigan?" (now that's more like it) "LOFT" I answer. And she stares blankly--"you know, Ann Taylor's LOFT?" Still blank. So I instruct her where to find a store, and move along. So I have found my niche-my choice of caridigan color-still cool, my choice of store to purchase it at--only cool to those of us "Mams".

Getting there

I got some of this material from IKEA months and months ago to make curtains for my window. Then I changed my mind and decided to use it to cover the closet, because the closet doors don't shut with my shelf-reliance food storage contraption inside. So then I needed more material and couldn't find it here or Utah. Since I am part of a photography forum, I put it up there, and one of the lovely ladies bought it in New York and mailed it to me (thanks Stacey!) anyhow, I finally got around to making these curtains, with grommets and all. So easy! They are plastic and just snap together. Then I used the remnants to cover these chairs that I got years ago from my friend Cami (Thanks Cami!). Actually, Hyrum recovered them, and he did a fab job. My walls are a light grey (they look tan in these pictures because of the poor lighting). Just thought I'd clarify.

I love them!
