A few weeks ago, I found this post about using aprons as curtain, called How to Display Your Apron Collection. Well, I fell in love with the look!
We love using aprons, and have a few, so I thought I’d try this.
Well, it didn’t look so great. 🙁 I left them up for about 2 weeks, to see if they grew on me.
Well,they didn’t. And since this window is above the sink, the long ties kept getting wet. So I had one of the kids climb up and take them down. I put the old curtains back up.
I really do love the apron as curtains look. And when I get aprons better suited to this, I will definitely do this. So, I’ll be keeping my eyes open for more aprons, inexpensive or free aprons!

I thought I had a picture of the curtains with the valance that those big hooks hold up. I can’t find it, though. These curtains are green gingham.
Oh, I could have rushed out and bought some aprons to use. Or bought fabric to make some. That, however, would not be good for my family. We can use the money elsewhere, instead of on curtains, just because I felt like changing them. I really do love the old curtains that I made, so I can in no way justify buying new.
I’m always telling one of the children, they need to be content with what the have, instead of always wanting something bigger or better.
That goes for curtains, too. 🙂
