I love using tablecloths for drapery panels. There are so many pretty patterns and colors and you could even line them if you wanted/needed to! The other great thing is that they are longer than typical drapery panels. Without going custom, it's hard to find a curtain panel over 100" long. I decided it was time to change out my living room curtain panels for something a little more streamlined and modern so I started with this basic long tablecloth for around $10. I added some ribbon to embellish it and give it a more custom look.
after hanging and embellishing....
Stay tuned tomorrow for the beginning of my house tour!

my mom turned a shower curtain into a throw! Was cloth obviously! Definitely could have worked as a tablecloth too...

I was just about to start sewing my own curtains...but couldn't find any fabric I liked. This is a great idea!...and back to the store I go!
Meagan, that's a great idea! The possibilities are endless! They have some really pretty tablecloths at world market and home goods that could easily double as curtains as well.
You come up with the best ideas lol.
