insulation project one complete

I tell you, there will be no prizes for photography on my CV. But we do have a new curtain. The top photo shows the window pre-curtain where you mostly can see that the view through the window is of beautiful ferns. Photo number two shows the curtain project completed. The track cost me NZ$20 and that included the screws for the job and also the shop assistant cut the track to size for me. Specialist curtain shops are mostly full of very expensive curtains (and carpets in our town) but their remnant bins, for both curtains and net curtains, are worth a look even if you are on a budget. The curtain we already owned as my Mum made it for us two years ago. She used remnants for it.

I did some preliminary investigation on a bed head/headboard so any remaining draft goes down behind our heads and not on top of our faces. NZ$250 new and they don't, according to the clearance shop I visited, come in second hand. Other friends made their own. So I need to do some more creative thinking on that one. $250 it won't be.
