Hello!
Did you make many New Year's resolutions for this year? One of mine was to catch up on a lot projects around the house. One of them was to affordably update my kitchen a little. I had a curtain panel I've wanted to use to make into faux roman shades and I finally did it!
Here is the before vintagey look.
Here is the updated new look.
Here is a really great tutorial I found on
Sunset.com. In this tutorial, they used sewing, which I substituted with iron on hemming tape.
Do you like the new light? More on the light in another post, it has it's own story.
For the wood, I used a piece of a pallet
I drilled two holes into the wood to make it easier to screw into the wall.
I wrapped up the fabric and glued it down with fabric fusion and let it dry for 24 hours. I think any kind of glue would work too.
I secured the fabric some more with thumb tacks. To attach to the wall, I lifted the fabric and screwed the board to the wall. When the fabric was lowered it hid the wood.
