New Mudroom Curtains

I mentioned last week that I was sewing curtains for my mudroom. I finished them today and what a difference $8.99 and a few hours can make!

Here’s the door with a valance I half heartedly reappropriated from somewhere else in the house. It had been like this for longer than I’d like to admit…

And now, with the new curtains made from 2 yards of cotton quilting fabric and tie-backs made from my scrap pile:

I think I’d prefer the curtains a tiny bit longer, but there’s no way I’m remitering the corners to gain an inch of length! (or maybe there is)

All in all, they turned out pretty well…

Now maybe I’ll get around to fixing my sloppy edging job (I know you noticed!). In the meantime, take it from me… you’re better off painting trim first, then walls ;)
