How is it that a panty can get out of control in a matter of months?
I am in need of cleaning and tiding up mine, but I thought it sounded funner to make a curtain for the glass portion of the door and hide the mess.
I spent one whole day out shopping for the perfect curtain, and came home with nothing.
I dug around in my fabric selection and found a scrap of red and white gingham. I figured it would do for now, or at least until the perfect curtain could be found.
I had a good laugh thinking about all the time I spent searching for a curtain, and the time I had making one I could have cleaned the pantry.
My was was so much funner though.
Do any of you find a great way to procrastinate about things???
Love the yellow bird dishes…where are they from?
When I read your title my though was, “close the door”, but you are right, putting a curtain on the door works too, lol
So pretty!!
My oven. It really needs cleaning inside but I hate the strong smelling stuff and can’t use it so it takes such a lot of scrubbing.
I don’t know why your still looking for the perfect curtain! I think you have found it. I love the gingham with the wood. Your such a smart lady 🙂
Looks great with the gingham. I hate straightening up the plastic container cabinet. It frequently winds up like Fibber McGees closet!
You have no idea the lengths I will go too Dawn. I picked up a single panel of red and white toile at an antique mall in Coloma….would that work for you!.
Oh I agree…it’s so much easier to just shut a door than to organize what’s behind it! I followed you on Linky Followers too. I don’t have my gadget up yet but hope to do it sometime over the weekend. Have a good one!
Now THAT is funny! I’ll have you know that I just cleaned my pantry last week and it is already a tad messed up! xo Diana
Cute. And no one will ever know what lurks within…..
~Bliss~
Ha! This quite funny! Sometimes I do the same thing…head in one direction, and end up in another!
Oh, I can find MANY ways to procrastinate! LOL Love the gingham in the door–and what pretty tulips and plates.
The older I get, the easier it is for me to get distracted and off on a wild goose chase. I would rather sew cute curtains than organize a cupboard too. Your little curtains are perfect. I’m following you via Linky Followers and I hope you’ll follow back.

Procrastination can be a good thing Dawn, because in the end you find a better fit:)! Or perhaps the project turns out better than it would have the first time.
Dawn, I hate to reorganize the pantry! I did it in Dec. and it already needs it again. I love your red and white checked solution to the problem!
LOL…I must say I didn’t look at the title of this post when I started reading, it and wondered what in the world you were talking about with a “panty” getting out of control. Then I went back up and reread the title and realized it was misspelled. Too funny…
Anyway love the pics! I’m so in love with the yellow bird plates.
Love the yellow bird dishes…
