I have found the most amazing site for affordable fabric. It is so amazing I am almost scared to share it! Just kidding! You’ll have to wait until the final curtains post to find out where I got the fabric though, but I wanted to share the dimensions of how to sew these draped curtains.

Stay tuned for the living room curtains which were a bit more complex but I have some in depth instructions on how to make it easier for you, and get professional quality curtains for $200, that retail for $2,000.

It’s Simple: I help those who Don't, Do. You want to be able to complete that DIY project, I help you do it. Not all of us know where to start with home decor and projects, but I help. I’m in love with stores like Home Goods, World Market, Home Depot, and Target. You can find me strolling the aisles of local flea markets, or spending hours online finding the best deal for decor. I’m excited to share my own journey with you and to hopefully provide inspiration for those seeking their personal style!
