I suggested one of these in another post and the more I thought about it, the more I wanted one for myself. It should be here today or tomorrow but may be a little late because of the weather related mess in the Dallas area.
Nice! Where are you putting it?

Home Depot has 3' led shop lights for $35. Hung one in the work area in the garage and replaced the fluorescent in the middle of the garage. Gives much more light, and at $35 is one of the cheapest leds I've found. Others that are 4' are over $100.

This is it. They have others from about $30, but this one was in the store and fit my needs exactly.

The curtain rod for my bedroom just arrived ... at my seamstresses house. So now with nearly a foot of new snow on the ground we are trying to work out how to get it here. The package is nearly 13ft long so it might take some doing.
Need to get it installed so I can accurately measure for curtains, I've only just found a fabric I like, hoping to get this project done by mid Feb.

It will be so nice to have proper curtains instead of the overstretched panels I've been dealing with.

traverse rod by Kirsch, I ordered a 2inch in coffee with the ball bearing carrier system.

I love that rod. It's beautiful. I wish I would have used a more substantial rod when I did my bedroom drapes.

my very good friend is a seamstress, she makes draperies, blinds, cushions/pillows and also supplies blinds and rods. She got a great deal for me on this rod, the company were having their once a year sale and she had another large order to add she passed on some of her savings to me.
This time around with her help I will be having custom draperies and blinds throughout, the roman blinds she made for my living room are wonderful. She truly is gifted.

How lovely. Thanks so much for sharing. I so enjoy seeing what people have done to decorate or remodel their homes.

Finally finished underlight cabinet.


Found some wood sheets at lowes for 7 dollars on the damaged section. The sheet was big enough to have enough material for the cover even though half of the sheet was damaged.

LED lights were a total of 69 dollars although out of pocket they cost 35 dollars with a conjunction use of coupons and discounted gift cards!









Wife was happy
