Book Review: review
Summary: 5 Stars
This book was a bit of a surprise but I love it. It progresses from inspiration, through appropriate fabrics to how to info. The instructions are clear and concise, it includes not only drapes with the different types of headings, but also pelmets, cornices and blinds. Everything you need to know to make your own window coverings with a professional finish is included here. It also makes an attractive coffee table book !
Summary of The Ultimate Curtain Book: A Comprehensive Guide to Creating Your Own Window Treatments
The best-selling comprehensive guide to creating your own window treatments. Learn to make professional-looking curtains, drapes, blinds, and valances-from choosing the best style to cutting, making, and fitting. Over 35 practical, step-by-step projects.I felt as if I were being told interior design secrets that had been kept from me for years. Curtains have always been something I thought should be left to the experts -- or at least to J.C Penneys. But who better knows what a room needs than yourself? Some of the projects I especially enjoyed were how to make velvet rose tiebacks and a stained glass window shade and how to add painted effects to your curtains with stencils.
