moldy to magnificent

When we moved into this house, I couldn't find our shower curtain liner.  Did I go to the store and get a new one?  uhhmm, nope.  Instead, I did this to our shower curtain:

Yup, that is nasty mold.  This is what it looked like AFTER bleaching and scrubbing and washing.  I really like this shower curtain, plain as it is.  The fabric is a sturdy hemp/linen and it wasn't cheap.  So, I decided to repair it (it was either that or cut it up and use it for something else which would have been fine but then we would be out a shower curtain). 

Considering how much I liked it when it was boring & plain, imagine how much I like it now.
 
The fabric is from my scrap bin.  It's a simple project but gosh, I love how it has transformed our bathroom.  Who doesn't love some jewel tones sprinkled here and there?  And yes, I did go out and get a new shower curtain liner.
