The third item I cut was the curtain tie back. I cut a piece of fabric which measured 6 x 24 inches. Again, I made a backing out of the plain fabric for the tie back.
The fourth item I created was the Window Valance. I measured from the top of the shower curtain down this time. I wanted to keep the area where shower hooks would normally go. I measured and cut a piece that measured 22 x 72 inches. I did not line the valance because I wanted to keep the sheer feeling. I sewed a two inch hem in the bottom and that was it!
The fifth item I created was a deskchair or table scarf. Ok, I will be honest… I do not have a measurement for this item. It was the last of the fabric and I just put a hem in it. By the time I created this- it was midnight and I was in an almost zombie state. I KNOW you have been there… We used it on a little table to bring that wonderful pattern to the opposite side of the room.
There you have it- 5 projects out of 1 shower curtain (find it here)! 5 dorm room projects for $29.99!
Stay tuned- later this week I will share all my hints to making a great looking dorm room without breaking the budget!
And… before I leave – Here is the Pinterest version.
Till Later,
Joy
