How to: Curtains

Nothing finishes a room like curtains, they are the final touch of style and color to complete a room. So when I moved in my new house I really wanted curtains in the living room. I ran into a challenge with the long bay window in the front. So I decided with a little help from my sweet dad I could make the curtain rod. We used a 1.5" wood dowel and spray painted it glossy black. After a few coats and a few hours of drying time, we drilled holes in each end and screwed in finials that came already painted black. I bought 2" chrome curtain rings to finish soft cream curtains. We repeated the process for the other window and I was super excited with the turnout!
