Okay yes, I know I said that I was going to make an effort to post more often, and I have failed. BUT, there has a been a lot going on around here that I will have to tell you about later. So stay tuned and I will update in a later post.

Hubs and I got some beautiful curtains a couple years ago for our wedding. I wanted to figure out a creative way to get these suckers hung up. Since we have so many windows across the back wall of our living room, I wanted to try to avoid putting a large curtain rod all the way across the wall. Solutions to that...? How about plumbing pipe???
Yes, plumbing pipe. Why not? This is such a cheap and chic alternative to a fancy, expensive, decorative curtain rod. I really have always hated trying to hang pictures and curtains, etc. the "correct" way so I, needless to say, tend to lean towards the "eyeballing" approach. Finally you can forget the drill and the level for this super simple project.
All you will need is:
1/2 inch black plumbing pipe (I think we used 12" long pipe)
End caps
Screw Hooks
We had this stuff literally laying around the house. The plumbing pipe was leftover from some of our shelf making which was on the "Plumbing Pipe and Wooden Shelves" post, so you might have to run out to your nearest home and improvement store to pick some up!
Screw in the hooks, thread your curtain onto the pipe, and hang. That simple! No level and no drill needed. Woohoo!!
The sun wasn't on my side for these pictures....
Stay safe y'all- XO
