    My childhood bedroom had sheer curtains and a pull down blind. Glorious! They felt pretty fancy to me as a child
    They had ruffles along the inside and bottom edge and were almost always tied back.
    Yours with the lovely floral accent are wonderful. And I love that delicate print you covered the cornice with

    What a coincidence. I just made curtains from a bunch of synthetic material-velvet, no less. And I found out something really great. When I went to glue these things to the wood, I used contact adhesive (aka contact cement) like E6000 or (better brand in my opinion) Gorilla contact adhesive. You have to be patient and let it set. But it is rock solid when it does. I could not pull this material off on an experimental piece I did first. And, this adhesive does not bleed through. You can't use it to make pleats, but for adhering synthetics to things, it is amazing. But I am trying out this aluminum tape as a new way to make pleats because I cannot stand the glue method. So messy and sometimes the glue shows. Uck. You are a braver man than I gunga din. It all looks great.

I have the same dilemma--polyester is not good in so many ways, but sometimes they make it soo pretty! The design on the sheer curtains is divine!! ♀️🤎♀️🤎♀️

      Hey Shyra!!! Thank you! Yes that is a Great suggestion!! I came to the conclusion that I really wanted the colors to be really muted and subtle. Mixing colors to create "PlNKS" can be Tricky if the shade is not just right! The pale pink velvet ribbon w' taupe trim along the scalloped edge of the cornice allowed the pink flowers on the sheers to be center stage!I l appreciate the suggestion!!!

    Those curtains are so stunning and perfect for the girls’ room! Beautiful! That taupe trim really brought out the curves as well as rather calico fabric as well! The lace fabric is gorgeous too! You are so very talented in both construction and visual design!
    Today I worked in my 1:12 dollhouse. It seemed so “big” after having been working for quite a while in my 1:16 house! I worked on the children’s play room - it was such fun! I was able to use some leftover 1:16 kitchen pieces - frig and stove and dishes - to be the children’s “play kitchen” in the 1:12 house! Win/win! I could have arranged and puttered all day!
    Thanks for another fabulous video! Always so inspiring and instructive! Hugs, Kathleen

    These curtains are absolutely gorgeous. All this restraint with glue application and measuring is making me glad I'm sitting down LOL But yes, sometimes less is more. I never thought of using a pair of scissors to trim like that. I usually fight with either trying to cut the fabric to match and then struggle to apply it or cut a million notches to curl the fabric around complicated edges. The urge to throw it across the room is a thing. The trim you used was perfect! Thank you for all the great tips and ideas.

    Hello my friend!!! I'm so excited for you and all the progress you're making in EGT (excessive glue therapy)!!! LOL 😂 Growth in any area is painful, but always beneficial❤️!! The curtains are so sweet and a beautiful addition to their room. I love that you've properly 'dressed' the windows! Windows are supposed to be dressed a certain way, and my grandmother always said that way is similar to how a woman dresses. I'll explain... The first layer is the intimates, the clothing that covers the delicate areas. For a window that would be the pulldown shade next to the glass. Next the slip, the garment that smooths the top layer allowing it to drape properly. For a window, that layer is the transparent or lace panel that lets the outer panels hang and flow freely. Lastly, there is the garment itself. The piece that fits, flows, and moves with the body, properly accentuating the figure. For a window, this would be the panels meant to accentuate and show off the beauty of the room. Now just as a lady isn't always in the mood to be stuffed and trussed, it isn't always necessary to fluff up a window. Your window dressing is the perfect example of a classy, dress down style! I'm so looking forward to this year in mini's, new friendships, and new UA-cam channel! I believe that this is the year of upward mobility, positive change, and incredible collaboration!!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You're a warm, glowing light and an inspiring voice for so many!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

I felt a little called out about gluing just one section at a time, though. I definitely put glue on the whole piece, then have to add more glue to the first section because it's dried. 😬 I should find a local glue therapist to help me! 😄
