New Kitchen Curtains

June 4, 2014 by Aliesha

After living in our home for four years, I finally made some curtain valances for our kitchen!  I am not a seamstress at all, but I try to at least make curtains since custom curtains can be really pricey!


It’s super simple to make this kind of valance.  Just cut your fabric to the size you want (mine worked out perfectly so I was able to get 2 panels out of one 45″ wide and 2 yard long piece of fabric).  Hem all four edges, then attach curtain clips to the top edge, then hang on the rods.  That’s it!  It took me an hour to make the panels and iron them, and then Tad hung the curtains for me (which took another 30-45 minutes).

I’m in love with this fabric!
