Curtain Pullbacks From Old CDs
by

Want a super creative way to hold back your curtains? Well, here it is! It’s an upcycle project that uses an old CD and a chopstick (or a dowel.) Decorate them with some ribbon, artificial flowers and a glue gun and you can make them match any color scheme you like.
Note: These work best for thinner curtains or sheers. I found that the CD’s will bow and possibly break if you try to jam too much material in them though some CD’s are stronger than others.

Supplies Needed
You measure and cut your cd using a utility knife.
Wrap the CD in whatever ribbon you like. Then hot glue your artificial flowers on. Use a chopstick or a dowel for holding them onto the curtains as shown in the first photo! LOTS MORE PHOTOS ON THE BLOG LINK BELOW

Treasuredchaos.com on Jun 20, 2016I just knotted my curtains today because they were sucking against the window and blocking the breeze pulling through (it's like 90 degrees here) and thought...I need to invest in some tie backs!! Now I'm thinking..."I need to make some cd thingies!"
