crafty sewing alert...my tribute to cheapness and 30 minutes of fun!
{you have been warned}
{you have been warned}
this is the window over my kitchen sink that looks out in the back yard...my "check on the kids" window!
the thing about this window...its literally the first thing you see when you walk in my front door...bc the hallway funnels right to it...and it just didn't have enough pizazz...so i decided to change it.
so some hugely discounted fabric...texas shopping find with my SIL meg...and viola...the after!

it had to be fast and simple, bc, well, that's all i have time for, so i literally folded the fabric in half, hemmed each of the raw edges and sewed them in a rectangle. simple.
then the pizazz...the fringe...isn't it fabulous?
i pinned it on the front at the bottom and sewed directly over the top...thread color was close and you can't even tell! woo hooo!

final touch??? the cafe rod cover...ok, first, the cafe rod is from wal mart, used ont he initial window covering i made...it's a $2 cafe rod...
i took a scrap of the fabric from the curtain, sewed a tube and flipped it opposite of the curtain fabric.
i bought a bag of black curtain clips {$4} and hung it up...and it's done.
{in way less than 30 minutes too}
you can do this...i promise. semi straight line sewing, no pattern...just go with it!
you never know what you can create until you try it!
