Painted Curtains

The idea of painted curtains probably sounds a little strange to all of you, but I am working on a very strict budget and pretty window treatments are crazy expensive for big windows - I needed a cheap fix to my dilemma and thus painted curtains sounded great!

I went to Walmart and bought $8.00 twin flat sheets, paint, a small foam roller and painters tape.
I ironed the sheets - you don't want wrinkles in your paint stripes.
taped out my stripes - my sheets are 96 inches and so easy math gave me 12 stripes even
and then I painted - two coats
important to peel the tape off before your paint dries completely
and voila - painted curtains - a window treatment for $20!
