Happy Saturday! We are patiently awaiting the arrival of our little one that is due any day now. Soon, hopefully, I'll be busy learning how to be a good mommy, changing diapers and most importantly holding and loving our new baby. With that I felt I should share with you one of the projects I recently completed.
Now that our living room is nearing completion it's time for some window treatments. I whipped up these burlap curtains using a $10.00 roll of burlap from the hardware store. They needed a good wash and air out but the smell has gone away now. I still want to do some valances for the windows and for the office nook but I'll get there.
These were super simple to make, just panels with a rod pocket. I didn't even bother with a hem because I wanted a worn look. Of course I used crochet flowers to tie them in the center because I have sort of an addiction to crochet flowers. I'll eventually have them in some form in every room. The flowers are actually pinned to the curtain in the center with a loop of yarn wrapped around the flower and the curtain.
I have some other burlap projects in mind since I only used a portion of the roll but I'll get to them later, I hope.
