I not only got the grommet hardware, but I also made the shower curtain.
It's hard to photograph a shower curtain in our little bathroom. This is the best I could get.
After making this I realized that stores charge way to much for these. They are not hard to make. It would have been really easy if I was just using plain fabric. The only tricky part was trying to make the 72 inch hems straight. They aren't. I tried some patterned prints, but our bathroom is so narrow that too much color makes the room look even smaller. I was going to just do all white at first, but snooze-a-roo…I went with a bit of patchwork for some color. It looks pretty good in the room if I do say so myself. I like grommets. Grommets are good. And easy. And shiny.

Saturday we took Keely out to a marina to look at some boats and walk on floating docks. We were trespassing, but we dressed nice enough so no one questioned us. We aren't really poor bums that couldn't possibly ever afford a boat. Nooooo. Keely was quite impressed. She had to "push" all the boats that she could reach, so that they could go "float with their friends." It was satisfying to her since all the boats really did move when she pushed them.
Keely at 3. hardy har har.
The more outtings we go on the more I realize that our area has a lot of neat stuff in it. It's nice to be able to finally take her out and about a little bit. I haven't been able to in the past because she was either too little or just too difficult that it wasn't worth the trouble. She is enjoying the freedom of running around and exploring these days. The meltdowns now come when we get home and she is tired.
