Hi guys! I've been having a great time with #PROJECTdecor and taking advantage of each spare minute I have, which sometimes seem to be few and far between, to update every space in our home. This time, it was our outside area. I've been wanting to add some softness to the outdoors with sheer curtains and was excited when I found sets of 2 for $4.99!
As you can see, the before is a little bare.
This project was so simple, it doesn't even really need instructions, but I'll share anyway! Supplies needed: String, curtain sheers and some self-stick hooks or screws. 1) Attach the hooks (or screws) across the top of the area where the curtains will hang. 2) Thread string through the curtains. 3) Tie the string onto the hooks (or screws). We started with two curtains at a time and would tie the string off onto the hooks, then we'd just repeat with the next two curtains until finished. 4) Fluff and enjoy!
For now, we finished off the area by adding a rug to the sitting area that was rolled up in our garage and a couple of pillows and accessories from the house. There is always more we could do, but for right now, I think this $20 project made a huge difference!

Love what the curtains did! What a transformation.
ReplyDeleteThank you Nessa!! It is definitely a fairly easy transformation.
Deletelove it. light and breezy!! Don't tell my husband you got curtains 2 for $4.99 cause I just ordered some and let's just say they weren't 2 for $4.99. I know I keep saying it, but this whole project has been so inspiring and encouraging!! THANKS!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome how something so simple can make such a big difference!
ReplyDeleteHi Tab, I love the curtains! just enough to add a little ambiance. I was thinking,in the future,if you want to play with some different colored sheers at different times or for special occasions,It would be easy to change it up if you wanted to. My midstream project right now is my work station in my living room. almost to the 1/2 way mark. re-locating some of it,sorting and organizing. I have really been inspired to start targeting the "dark corners" of the house. I am enjoying all the ideas from this project of yours. Keep it up everyone :)
ReplyDeleteWinterize the garden.

ReplyDeleteOh...I've cleaned out Noah's closet, my closet, my bookshelf, and the basement is next...:)
DeleteI just discovered your blog, and I love it! Your photos are fantastic. Your $20 makeover is remarkable. You have a lovely setting to begin with, but the curtains really make the space romantic. I am following you on Bloglovin'. :)
