I would like to follow Coven After Hours on your site. Would you please assist me?
I tried this and it came out fabulous. Great idea!
If anyone wants to recreate this look for themselves, make sure your curtain panels go to the floor.
On the panels, stores usually carry 84”, to make longer attach fabric to the bottom of drape to reach floor, ikea has true 96” panels that are wonderful for this project.
Sometime this year (2020) hubs and I want to redo our bedroom. I would love to do it like this project. He could put all this together with no problem. It is just so charming.
Need salon furniture updated
This is such an amazing look, maybe I will try that someday! You did an awesome job!
Why don’t you take the hems down on the curtains and add a decorative fabric or buy another pair of the same curtains and add more length. If you’re not a sewer you can use the iron on adhesive like “stitch Witchery”
good idea but i would put it at the top
Nice! I thought i was going to do something similar using command hooks at each corner to fasten sheer curtain panels to the ceiling.
got all finished .. then realized i couldn't see the TV. LUUUUUCY!!!!!
I like this version soooo much better!
I did this many, many years ago but used 1" pipe on all four sides. I hung the pipe with 4 looped gold chains about16" from the ceiling. If I remember correctly, I only needed to hang two chains on the side pipes by using lightweight lace curtains. I used pretty white hooks to hold up the chain. I also didn't paint the pipes - I used valances between the long curtains at corners. Got so many compliments and still have the curtains, so I may do it again. My problem is being 79 yrs. and having to have someone help me. Do love your project for reminding me of mine. Thanks.
Nice! I do get that the panels don't go to the floor, but if you have access to a sewing machine, it's all hems.....
If you haven't noticed, geometric design is all over the place these days! Himmeli designs in particular are not only amazing, but are super easy to make yourself! The great thing is you can make these designs to serve almost any purpose and can make them in a variety of shapes too! All you need for these himmeli hangers is some brass or copper tubing and a bit of metal wire! We want to help you DIY, so some of the materials in this post are linked to sellers.

Our bedroom makeover was a dream come true for us. The handmade wingback headboard is my favorite addition. Let me share how we built and upholstered it. You will not believe our bedroom's BEFORE photos see them HERE.
I needed some tall planters, so I went to Lowe's. News flash! Tall planters are very expensive!! But as I was walking through the plumbing aisle, I had an idea...
Sometimes we luck out and we find exactly what we need when we need it. It doesn’t often happen that way. Actually it usually doesn’t happen that way.When I decided that I wanted to spray paint glass vases as accessories in my kitchen I thought I’d try to shop my stash first.
Pairing up oddball items to create new looks is just something I love to do, sometimes it doesn't meet up with my expectations other times it surpasses them. These items I'm about to share were a success story so I knew I had to create a post about it for my Hometalk folks.
I found a couple of vintage mirrors at a flea market about 2 years ago. And I decided that I wanted to use one of them on a blank wall in my guest bath.But I thought it needed a little embellishment.So I stenciled it!
We recently gave one of our old and tired bedrooms (with really badly stained hardwood floors ) the makeover of a lifetime. We incorporated some of the prettiest farmhouse trends into this room- faux brick sheeting and a German schmear, hanging bed we built ourselves, fireplace mantle, wall shelving, re-purposed candle holders turned hanging lighting and lots and lots of paint. Take a look at the transformation!

Ever since I brought home a faux fur throw rug my dogs have fallen in love with the texture and are obsessed with sleeping on it. So, I decided they needed (yes, needed!) a nice big bed they could lie on, and we needed a new bed in one area of the house. You can learn more about faux fur and how to test it by going to this full blog post, link at the end of this post.
Lately, the dogs have been doing their best to keep me busy with fixing multiple pieces of furniture including but not limited to chairs, our couch, and a footstool.So it’s high time that the cats received a little attention. To that end, and because of the unsightly nature of the status quo, I decided to make a new bed for the cats.
Shoe clutter has always been a problem that haunts our entryway. Between everyone's everyday shoes, sports shoes, boots, and leisure shoes, there's barely any floor space!I'm always on the hunt for creative ways to stow clutter, so after the last time I tripped walking in the door, the wheels in my head started turning on turbo. What I came up with is an easy, affordable, and attractive enough way to store shoes, while keeping them easily accessible—using PVC pipes!Learn tons of other hacks to an organized closet, by joining our organizing workshop!

In 2020 we not only had to replace our refrigerator, but we also had to replace our dishwasher, furnace, and air conditioning unit. We don't throw away anything that may be useful and the water line from our old refrigerator was one thing we saved. I knew I would find a crafty use for the copper water line and I'm thrilled with the upcycled copper pipe heart wreath that I made using it.

Oh Hi! Thanks for being here!Today I’m so excited to show you how we made a solid headboard from 3 vintage farmhouse doors!If you follow me over on Instagram @somethingpaintedwhite you most likely know that this past September we bought a little summer home in the mountains here in AZ. The Phoenix area gets brutally hot in the summers, often reaching 120 degrees, and having an escape from it is ideal. We call our place “The Ranch” even though it’s not a ranch…it’s a tiny little park model RV with a room addition, but we love it!
Nowadays they don't seem to sell the type of headboard that I'm looking for. They are too small, come with a head and footboard, or too bulky. For a smaller room I can't have something as large as what I could find in a store or online...and then the price is crazy.So as I was putting drapes up in one room I knew I had to get rid of a ton of blinds. They are in good shape so I really didn't want to just throw them out so yes......I stored them. I'm glad I did because it hit me...shiplap is all the rage right now...and with all crazes, it will not be as cool in a year or two, so why pay the price for the wood when I can do it out of blinds. They are perfectly level, no warps, knot holes, etc. Plus the best part is that this headboard will not weigh a ton and need to have huge wall anchors to attach it.So away I went to the proverbial drawing board. What can I put these slats on? I want to keep it light...foam board. I got 2 packages (a set of 2 so 4 total) at Walmart for 3.50 each set. I only needed 3 foam boards but it was cheaper this way. Plus, I'm thinking of making a second one for a gift if this turns out the way I hope.I used just about everything that I had on hand in the house. If you needed to buy all of these items your cost would run about $40. And that includes purchasing some horizontal blinds.So here we go.....
I absolutely love creating PVC pipe art and this time I went with animals that like to live or play up in the trees: a monkey, koala, sloth and a squirrel.

This is just another idea for a great way to create more work space for your kids or yourself. I don't know about you but this Coronavirus has really turned my house upside down and the one thing, besides toilet paper, that we have limited supply of is space! With 5 kids now being home schooled and a husband trying to work from home as well, we needed a good solution and quick! (See my other solution using hairpin legs.)

Beeswax wraps are very easy and inexpensive to make. You’ll love this simple linen version of a popular classic for your natural kitchen. Ever since I first saw beeswax wraps I thought I could make them myself. That is what I did over 2 years ago (you can see that post here). I still use them a lot but I needed different sizes. This time around, I thought it would be fun to use one of my favorite fabrics: linen!

Remember when I did a makeover on my laundry nook? You can find all the details on my blog. Well I told you at that time that I planned to build a countertop over the washer and dryer to make a nice folding surface and some place to hold the detergent within reach.An added bonus is that it keeps things from falling between and behind the machines which was a constant problem.For a few reasons I never got around to building the counter and then a couple weeks ago my dryer died and my washer was making sympathetic noises so I had to replace them both. Once I got the pretty new machines all comfy in my little laundry nook, I realized I needed to complete this project once and for all.Here is how I built it.
My sister just moved in to a new house and her daughter is getting some new furniture. So naturally I step in. She's very feminine and whimsical so I had some ideas.
