Curtains that I have made. . .

I made window treatments for my little girls rooms and have considered making tutorials on how to make them to put in my etsy shop. Let me know what you think --- would this be something that would interest you or other people you know?

This is a indoor window awning valance that I made for my oldest two daughter's room.



I also made the awning for the closet door. The room is fairly small with all their furniture so by taking down the closet door and adding a curtain for the doorway it made room for a desk for their room.


Here is the curtain that I made for my smallest two daughter's room. This is called a dog-ear valance because of the shape of the ties on the curtain.


I saw a curtain this style and improvised it to make it fit my needs and the style that I wanted. I wanted the ties built into the curtain so all that had to be done was slide the curtain onto the rod, distribute the gathers evenly, and tie the ties. I have this valance for sale (as a custom order) in my etsy shop. However, I have also considered making this into a tutorial and selling the tutorial in my shop.

Here is a photo showing another way to tie the ties of the curtain that offers a little different look. . .


Let me know what you think! :)

  7. I am trying to make a free standing awning (not between walls or cupboards) for my kitchen window and I can't find any instructions on how to make the frame. I'm trying to figure out how to jimmy-rig it! How did your do yours??? The rooms are very cute by the way. :)
