Bed Skirt !!

So, ever since I put my bed on risers to gain some extra storage, the space between (love me some Dave Matthews...... ooh, sorry, snapping out of it....) has driven me totally crazy!  (She says, as if the rest of the bedroom hasn't)..... and not crazy in the Dave Matthews sort of way.  Anyway, I really needed a bedskirt to cover up what was lurking underneath.  I don't know about you, but I've never really  had good luck in the bedskirt (or dust ruffle, if you please) department.  They were always such a pain to put on and getting them to stay in place was a nightmare (figuratively and literally!)  And then, the dawn broke (yes I am cracking myself up with all of these metaphors, although not quite sure metaphor is the right word...anyone...anyone?)  I stumbled across this tutorial from Live from B5 .  Honestly, it is genius !!! Sew or no-sew simple to do!!  It took practically  no time at all and I absolutely love the faux tailored look.  Right now I'm into burlap (until linen is in the budget) but who knows a month from now?  This project is so easy that I could do one for each season........

Or maybe I should settle it down and work on the rest of the bedroom, so obviously in need.
