Create Pretty Storage With No Sew Pillowcase Curtains!
Hi there, Hometalk Friends! Do you have a space that needs to be organized? Maybe like me, you have items that just won't fit into "pretty" storage. Today I'm sharing a simple, thrifty project that can be used as a decorative storage solution or as curtains for a small window. Plus, this simple tutorial requires absolutely no sewing!
I think most of us want our homes to feel neat and orderly. but when it came to my craft room, I often felt like I was fighting a losing battle! Can you relate? I found a simple solution to beautify the storage shelves that I needed for bulky craft supplies. I often come across sweet orphan vintage pillowcases during my thrifting jaunts. which inspired me to put them to work in my craft room. Here, I used three cases to cover 39" storage shelf (seen below.)

Beside the desired amount of pillowcases, all you need is a pair of scissors and a spring tension curtain rod. Find it here://amzn.to/2qkroKI
All I did was cut the corners off of the closed end of the pillowcase which leaves curved openings as pictured. Start small, it can always be cut deeper, but it only needs to be large enough for the rod to fit through, like this:
