Paper Napkin Valance
Instructions:
Instructions:
These are the shortest instructions ever, but don't be fooled by the simplicity of this project; after you try it once, you'll be wanting to update the curtains in other rooms as well.
Start by opening one of the napkins, cover it with a cloth, and iron to remove the fold lines. Repeat with each napkin that you will use. The number will vary depending on the width of your curtains.
Drape the napkins diagonally over the curtain rod, as shown in the photo. Begin draping with the napkin in the middle then moving outwards to the left and to the right.
Pick a color from the napkins that you wish to emphasis, and paint your clothes pin in that color. Let the clothes pin dry, then glue on some coordinating silk flowers and leaves. Use the clothes pin to draw up scallops on the bottom of your curtains - est Voila!
When you get tired of this look, just toss the napkins away, and go for a stripe or entirely different pattern, and start again.
