Because whenever I order something online lately for the house it’s backordered. First, my West Elm shower curtain. Now, window curtains.
I’ve been keeping my eye out for new curtains for while. I have a really weird love for curtains. I think they’re fun (you know you still wrap yourself up in them like you’re a burrito every once in awhile! or… maybe it’s just me) and they really “finish” a room. Curtains make such a huge impact on how a room feels to me.
And I have a couple rooms in my house that desperately need to feel good.
I’m talking about the dining room and living room:
I wish I had better photos of the rooms because it’s actually one big space. You can sort of see how they come together in this old photo from when we first moved into the house (just imagine the dining room behind that big ugly wall):
I don’t actually think that photo helps much. I vow to take better photos once the curtains come in.
Anyway, I’ve been on the hunt for curtains for these two spaces for awhile now and I finally found some that I like. Behold!
They are Cindy Crawford Style Sorrento Drapery Panels, and they are gorgeous. Can I say that one more time? GORGEOUS. That’s what they are. And they better be since a super model designed them. You can’t really tell from the photos, but the curtains are actually two layers – one solid ivory under layer, and another patterned sheer top layer. One more time: Gorgeous!
I was all set to buy them from the store, but for some crazy reason JC Penney only carries 85″ lengths in stores (what’s up with that JC Penney!?!) and I needed 95″ panels. Apparently I wasn’t the only one who needed these in a longer length though because they were backordered for several weeks. But now, finally, they should be coming in soon.
Soon.
Which means they aren’t here yet, but I am waiting with bated breath.
