Who can resist this?
I couldn't:
The delicious green houndstooth was $1. Not per yard. For the whole thing!
The trim was purchased for a specific reason (see below).
The black and white, well, it was an impulse buy. Only 1/2 yard didn't hurt the purse fund too much.
We recently repainted our family room (See Going Green here). The black curtains match the green fine, but I wanted something light and airy for the summer.
Before:
Oh, I forgot to mention that I needed to do it on a very tight budget. So I visited Wally world and found this:
Two panels for $10. I didn't realize that they were attached together at the top. So I just cut them apart and stitched up the edges. Then I added a little bling in the name of fringe and...
Tada!
With a little fringe, you can make the 'mainstay' everyday something unique!

Those look great! Where did you see that fabric store? Possibly in Burlington, NC??
You did an amazing job.
Your house looks beautiful. Nice work Girl~
We have a fabric outlet also and it is my most favorite place in the whole world. I love your curtains, they are all just gorgeous. Such beautiful fabrics and trims. Hugs, Marty
nice job! I loved that looped fringe!
The fringe is sheer perfection.
I was curious about where that store was because a fabric store just opened in my town with a big sign just like that!
You amaze me, friend!

That looks fantastic! I've already been to Wally World this morning for groceries, but I may need to revisit for a pack of those fab curtains. Thanks for the great example!!

Excellent use of ready made and custom trim! It looks fantastic. And wow, do I wish I lived near that fabric outlet. I have fabric envy big time.
