tablecloths into curtains * diy draperies

I came across these tablecloths this summer on Target clearance. My store only had 1, so I came home and looked online, and there they were! Hooray! tablecloth from target

I’m trying to let me daughter guide this bedroom design and she loved them, they were canvas-y and pretty substantial so we were set! Or, so I thought. I completely forgot that the basement ceiling is high and that  84” curtains were not going to look great in there.

Sooo….we cut them in half and sewed (yes, SEWED, I sewed!) a strip of white fabric from another plain white window panel from my clearance stash to make them longer and hung the rods high above the windows.

She also has plain white roller shades in there, so we decided to dress them up a little with some craft tape from Michaels.craft tape
