Metamorphosis Monday: Tinkering in the Dining Room

My name is Gollum, and my middle name is

Can't Leave Well Enough Alone,

specially when it comes to quick, no-sweat changes

that involve lots of hammering.

The dining room just cried out for a change.

What to do? I know what,

lace panels!
Here's the before picture:
And the during picture.
I was underwhelmed.

But I happened to have some ribbon from Big Lots, and I went to work with my trusty hammer.

O, Mother, said Bandwith, when will this end?

When you're messing with curtains, you just know these things. Like, it's time to stop when the curtains hang right.

Or if the color works or if the ribbon doesn't show too much.

Then you stop.

Which is totally different from

Knowing when to quit.

I don't know doodly squat about that.

So even if I stop, I might not quit.

I like seeing the outdoors, so a gentle swoop-back worked.

For now, anyway.

As Mama says, they're easy to change.

Love,
