Drop What You Are Doing!


Do you want a new look on your windows but don't want to spend a hand and a foot? Do you like the pictured window panel? It was around $20 and sew freaking easy!


Run up to the nearest Lowe's and get a painter's drop cloth (less than $10). I used a 6 x 9, but they have different sizes to fit your needs. If you want to add fringe, run to the fabric store and get that too. Look for a sale and coupons! Run home to your sewing machine (or stitch witchery). Sew the fringe onto the backside of the panel, on the edge. Lastly, IRON the Hades out of the panel. It was very helpful to use REAL starch during this process. To hang the panel, fold the top over so that the fringe hangs down and appears to be a valance over the panel. Making sense?? Hang the panel with clips and voila.... you have a gorgeous window treatment!!!


Be crafty with this. There are so many things you can do with a drop cloth and some trim. The options are endless!!!
