DIY smocked curtains made from drop cloths!  Let's lead with a picture, shall we? Recently I fell in love with some burlap smocked curtains. I couldn't get my mind off of them.  Kari Anne at Thistlewood Farms introduced us. See, she has them in her dining room and that's how we fell in love. Have you visited Thistlewood Farms?  You'll never want to live any place else. Her style is perfection. But the curtains are $200 a piece. What could I do?  Take my basic drop cloths in the dining room and smock 'em you say?  Why don't mind if I do!  Mind you they don't look as much like the original as I had planned but I'm still working on it. My plan is to smock two more and double the widths. I used a tutorial I found at Tumbling Blocks for honeycomb smocking or pleating. It's the best tutorial! It was easy and a little time consuming but really no big deal. I will try to double the widths in the next few weeks. As always I'll keep you up to date. I really need to finish a project to show you.

I'll smock my little fingers off to get these really done for you.Covering SlidingCover SlidingVertical BlindsVertical SlidingShutter DoorsShutter IdeasThe ShutterShutter HangingShutter SlidingForwardShutters for covering sliding glass doors I like this so much better than vertical blinds!!Curtains SwingPinch Pleat CurtainsTab Top CurtainsCurtains ValancesCurtains CottonCotton VoileWhite CurtainsLace CurtainsTop DrapesForwardTraditional white tab-top curtains from Country Curtains can soften the light coming through the bedroom window. 40x64 curtainsThe swing style rods allow you to adjust the amount of natural light entering the room.curtains arntjenPleats DraperiesDraperies MoodCustom DraperiesDrapery PanelsCurtainsDrapery DetailsWindow DetailsPleats SuitPleats PanelForwardmaybe tiny pencil pleats would work??? cb curtains northallerton
