When we decided to decorate our home, one of the first things that come to mind is a curtain. There are many types of blinds on the market. Lots of fabrics, colors, designs and styles to choose from. But sometimes, regardless of the variety available, we simply CanÂ't WeÂ're find what you want, and often when we do, CanÂ't pay.
The truth is that no promises need anyone to do it for you, you are as capable as it takes to do it yourself! Let's see how we can become creators of our own space using basic sewing techniques.
Let's start with the most prominent, the material. Tissue. Choose a fabric you like. Avoid quilted fabrics as they can stretch or shrink over time. The fibers like cotton and linen and especially those with polyester and micro fibers, hold up better than others. Also avoid silk or silk blends, because they tend to rot and disappear quickly. Make sure to buy enough fabric, you donÂ't want your curtains to look poor. Double height of the window and three times the width, should be fine.
In this article, we examine the three simplest sewing and techniques for hanging curtains.
For curtains with rings, you need to sew a hem about 3-inches at the edge of the curtain panels that are going to be hung. Now, sew each ring to each curtain panel leaving small distances between the rings so that the curtain is pulled easily. You can also use clip-on rings that donÂ't need to be stitched and are easier to apply.
For curtains tied guide you will need to create suspense. Just sew buttonholes across the top panel curtain. Now you can make the hooks with the same fabric as the curtains, or another but suitable fabric for a little diversity. Make threads and place through the buttons.
No Sew Curtains are also a quick and easy way to make curtains and decorate a window. In this case, the fabric should be 3 inches more than twice the height of the window and 2 inches shorter than the width window. Pull the fabric through the rod and fold evenly. Now sewing the two ends of the fabric at the bottom and sides together. When the curtain is ready, place a full tissue only in the center of the curtain or use two purchased tiebacks evenly spaced along the width of your window. Then adjust folds of fabric panel as desired.
Gather your supplies, fabric, scissors, screws, rings or ribbon, and use your imagination. In less than an hour you will be able to decorate the empty window effectively and cheaply. But most of the important thing is that you will have your own personal work for display in your home.
