$5 Burlap Curtains

$5 Burlap Curtains

I have been wanting to make Burlap curtains for forever! So I have been looking for cheap burlap online, but for the life of me I can not find any. Turns out I was looking in the wrong place the whole time...

Misprinted Burlap Sacks is THE way to Go!
I found Big misprinted sacks for $1.20 each!
(and I only needed 4)

I took the sacks and cut them down the sides so that the only part that was attached was the bottom...

Then I picked the side of the sack that did not show the print as well (So it was the inside of the sack) and made that side the front.

I had some pieces of burlap already so I used those for the straps...

Finally it all came together...this made 4 panels

In the end I ironed them....and took out 1 panel
I had some extra so I made these too.... For our windows
