Day 6 - Curtains!

We have lived in our home for a little over two and a half years. All that time I have had various bits of fabric and blankets covering the windows in our master bedroom. My procrastination was two fold. First, the cost, with 4 windows and a doorway ( between my studio and the bedroom) it was going to be expensive, even if I bought fabric and sewed them myself. Second, what to choose? Blinds, roman shades, curtains. What color, print, solid? And with cost being a factor I figured o had to live with whatever choice I made for a long time. When it comes to decor, I have a fear of commitment.

I finally decided to go very basic, anything would be better than the mismatch crap I had up for over 1 years. So I went an bought super cheap white flat sheets, basic curtain rods and cafe curtain clips. For all 4 windows and the doorway it cost me about $80. And the curtains go almost floor to ceiling. I took the sheets, cut them up the center length wise ( to make 2 panels for each window) and turned and sewed the cut edges for a finished look. I clipped the sheets up and then hot glued them to the rings to help them stay up. ( you can see what I mean in the pics).

So for my day 6 project I give you, finished curtains in my room.
