I found this great tablecloth on eBay. It is white with wonderful cross stitch in cobalt blue. The pattern looks kinda Scandinavian.<\/p>\n

The size seemed just right to make curtains for the guest room.<\/p>\n

You can likely see how I cut it.<\/p>\n

One end made the valance and the rest made the curtains. It looks yellow in the photo, but it\u2019s not.<\/p>\n

I flipped them to put the edging in the middle.<\/p>\n

I bought the cafe rods on Amazon, Decopolitan Ball Single Telescoping Drapery Rod Set<\/a>. They were really cheap. The rods are fine, metal. But the ends are really cheap plastic. I plan to use these glass balls I have as the ends instead, but I haven\u2019t found the box they are in. These look fine for now.<\/p>\n

The curtains are held up with Toofn Curtain Clips<\/a>. They were really cheap, too, but seem to be fine.<\/p>\n

I put a roller blind behind it, so that a guest can sleep in. You can\u2019t really see it until you pull the blind down. It is the kind of blind that has a ball chain to pull it up and down. I really hate the spring loaded ones.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m thinking I might like to paint something on the blind. I\u2019ve seen that.<\/p>\n

Anyway, that\u2019s it. Short post, but it turned out great! I really like it and it cost hardly anything.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
