Love the idea of drop cloth curtains - now I just need to learn to sew!! -
I made my curtains without any sewing :) I don't know how to sew either. So no need to know how for this project! -
I've looked at these in the stores and have been tempted since I don't sew. I like that sort of linen look, as you mentioned. Wonder how they would wash? Have you done that yet or would you take them to the cleaners? Just wondering. I have two dogs so I have to think about these things. Your curtains look beautiful! -
Thanks Donna! I actually pre-washed mine. It actually made the fabric softer, which was good. And that way if I want to wash them in the future I don't have to worry about them shrinking. And I just threw them in the washing machine...didn't take them to the cleaners :)

Thanks for responding and that's good to know. One more question, did they iron well?
-
I'm addicted to drop cloths! Curtains ... pillows at my Etsy ... I have plans for a drop cloth sectional slip cover ... -
Donna, I actually didn't need to iron them after I washed them. When they came out of the dryer they weren't wrinkled surprisingly :)
-
That's even better to know!

I like the idea of doing drop cloth curtains, my walls in my living room are cream ( posted on here) would they be too neutral in my room? -
Rebecca, I don't think they would be too neutral for your room. You could also paint on the drop cloth if you wanted to add some color (stripes or a stencil). Just an idea!
