New Window Shelf

Since we moved into our house we have not really done to much with the window treatment because we had to replace all the windows. We have been doing them in stages and are down to the last six getting replaced here in two weeks. Now that we are getting to the end of replacing the windows we are starting to put up blinds and curtain. Since we want both on the windows and my husband was set in having to get the two inch blinds so the kids and pets can not destroy them as easily. They had to be mounted on the outside of the window frame so to put curtains up I had to figure out a way that would put the rod out far enough. My idea was to build a shelf and rod set. My husband finally bought us the stuff to give it a try on one window to see if he liked it. Now that we got it up he likes the idea and we are now going to be putting them up in all the bedrooms and in the family room. First we are going to finish our bedroom windows to include some new curtains. I think that the shelf turned out cute.
