Cowboy Curtains


I sewed curtains for the guest room, maybe should have measured BOTH windows first. The others are plenty long enough but this one is a titch short. I will leave them, I think they're going to work OK.

New bed skirt and sheets on the bed. Blankets & comforter in the laundry.


This is the curtain detail.


New lamp; I added the spurs.



There needs to be a bedside table, this milking stool is too short. They certainly can't read with the light below the level of the bed.

That was fast!

Less than 18 hours after I placed our home on AirBnB we have the room booked. When its all said & done, after everyone else takes their cut, I stand to get about $30. So today I went and bought new sheets, pillows, fabric for curtains, shower curtains, alarm clock, lamp, etc. Spent $185.28. The good news is that I received a coupon to save 80% off custom framing & I have a painting to frame.
The shower curtain I purchased looks like this... NOT western, rustic, shabby chic or anything, just totally beach. The walls in the upstairs bathroom are light greenish and there is already a water color painting of a beach scene so this works well. I'll take the turquoise towels up for our guest. 
I also purchased shampoos, soaps, deodorant, tampons, all sorts of necessary items in individual packaging in case our guest needs anything.

Air B & B


We have placed our spare room on Air B & B

Asking $41 per night

Horses $10 extra per horse


I need to do some more decorating but this is the beginning


And I hope we get a guest or two


As you can see, there are no curtains, the lamp sucks, barely any art work. The closet is on the right and I have stuff inside it but if we were to get a guest I'd have to remove all of it & shove it in the other spare room.
This might be fun.
