No Sew Curtains. All you need is a washing machine & dryer and a Iron. The end result is good quality curtains that hang nice due to the weight of the fabric and best yet? They're 15/Canadian a Panel OR 10/US A Panel!
I’ve literally seen these drop sheet curtains everywhere. My farmhouse heart wanted to try these months ago but we were in the midst of moving and all the other things we’ve gone through in the last few months, I just didn’t have time. This weekend we had a MASSIVE snow storm. We received over 16 INCHES of snow and we were literally snowed in. It warmed up a bit today to +1 so the snow on the roads melted so we were able to go to the store.
Here’s how my room looked pre-curtains. Also, please don’t judge my ultra small rug. My OCD self is so bugged by the fact that my sofa and chair can’t sit on the rug. We sold our old bigger rug as it didn’t jive with the space, so we’re saving for this rug and in the meantime we are using this tiny little rug to warm up the space.
I started off by throwing them in the wash because when you first buy them they’re super starchy and it feels like an entirely different fabric. I also threw in some laundry detergent to give them a yummy smell and then threw them in the dryer and dried them until they were completely dry.
Do you love them or hate them? I’m so in love with them. Every time I do a DIY project that includes scissors I am very nervous. I’m not crafty at all. I might be good with paint and able to restore an old piece, but I am not crafty. So if I can do these super easy drop sheet curtains, so can you!

Did one package age make 2 panels or was it one package Each? I’m sure it depends oN the size of window, ours are a long 84“ and I believe inside is 34”. Funny part, I have been looking for drapes and was thinking about trying Your idea. Yours are beautiful Perhaps stencil some flowers or something. I’m a great procrastinator but if I ever get it done illl post a picture. Thanks again.
