No-Sew Curtains for the Dining Room

Need new window treatments? Got one morning? That’s all the time it took me to make No-Sew Curtains for the Dining Room!

These no-sew window treatments all started with a trip to Target… (doesn’t it always?) when I fell for the Blue Bird shower curtain by Threshold. Yes, it’s a shower curtain. Don’t tell on me.

Please note I am not a seamstress. Just a lazy girl who knows how to iron a mean fold.

Start the no-sew curtains by cutting the shower curtain in half. Literally.

I laid the shower curtain on the dining room table and cut straight up the center. Fold over a one inch seam then secure it with Stitch Witchery.

The curtains were not long enough so I cut a 12″ section from the top and bottom on my old curtains to create a 10″ panel at the bottom.

Iron, iron, iron. Glue, glue, glue.

Love, love, love!

I can’t decide which I love most: the bright, light blue paint (such a change from the drab browns) or the breezy new window treatments?

Come see the rest of the dining room re-do. I did it all within 14 days!

    What a simple and fun idea.

    I used to have a boss that could sew anything. She always said start with curtains if you want to learn. She always suggested taking a twin sheet and converting it to curtains as a place to start.

    Love what you created. It made the best mom advice list. Hop over and check out your feature: http://www.crystalandcomp.com/2013/05/best-mom-advice-52013/
