Take one tablecloth…

How to make a simple blind without sewing or drilling holes in the walls.

You will need the following items:

A Tension Self Locking Extendable Rod
One tablecloth – mine is 54″ x 54″ woven red Gingham
Some ribbon
Iron On Hemming (Wunda) Web

I folded the top of the tablecloth down and hemmed it with the Wunda Web, then threaded it on to the Rod. As yet I haven’t got matching ribbon, but I think it adds to the shabby chic rustic look! I draped the ribbon over the top, then to fasten the blind up I just tie the ends in a bow either side.

You can’t get any simpler than that!

    It was sheer laziness that made me use a tablecloth…no hems or edging to sew!!

    The curtain looks so nice! I really have a fondness for red gingham too. I never thought of using a tablecloth, thanks for the inspiration!
