4 (dollars) must be my lucky number

recently i've been on the hunt for curtains

we couldn't find any for less than $30

(and those weren't cute or what i wanted)

and i knew i could make some

but fabric can be spendy too

so.....instead we bought 2 twin flat sheets at walmart

for $4 each and cut each in half

and now have curtains in our bedroom for $8

they're so simple and they're exactly what i wanted

and

today i found new lamps for our room

for $4 each

at a garage sale (pictured above also)

they're kind of funky/modern

and go really well in our room

i'm so excited about them

but now i need shades

i want a shade like this

but there aren't any local here and amazon wants $30 a piece

so unless you have better advice

i think we're going to try and make some...

wish us luck!
