Window Mistreatments!

The Nesting Place is having a Window Mistreatment Party & I thought it would be fun to join in! I mistreated these windows some time back and wanted to share. I have enjoyed looking at all of the others who have linked their mistreatments on the site. Go ahead & take a look! You'll get tons of ideas!


Mistreatment: (n). covering for a window that is quick, cheap and pretty. may or may not need hardware does not require sewing. a real designer's worst nightmare.
Mistreating: (v). the act of treating a window with dignity and respect without use of the following: hundreds of dollars, sewing, time, crying, divorce, child neglect...

Here is the completed project... 

There was a little sewing done on these.  I hope it still counts!!!  The rod wasn't

long enough so I stretched it out & taped it together!

Okay... here's the major mistreatment part!  When you lift up the valance this is what you see!  Notice the unfinished edge of the fabric that is stapled to the wall to look like panels...  Shhhhh...  Don't tell anyone!

The row of beaded fringe was attached using a hot glue gun!

Gotta love the fast & easy way of gettin' things done!
