I needed some curtains for my outdoor patio and really wanted to try a BoHo twist. I found this excellent Youtube video tutorial on making BoHo Outdoor Curtains and I couldn’t believe my luck. On top of just what I was looking for, the curtains were no-sew! I was going to have my patio dripping in Rockstar BoHo Chic in a matter of hours. First I went to JoAnn’s and purchased some outdoor fabric on clearance. If you’ve never shopped JoAnn’s clearance section, I cannot recommend it enough. I found an indoor/ outdoor Canvas Duck that had been $20 a yard marked down to $3.50 a yard and I already had a bolt of cotton fringe I bought at a yard sale. It pays to shop the clearance racks at JoAnn’s. So you want to get 4 and 1/2 inches more than your desired length on each drop. Then I just followed these super easy directions and started pressing and gluing. The top flaps over and is glued to the right side of the fabric. You will glue your fringe there.
You glue your fringe to the top and the bottom of the right side facing of your BoHo delicious fabric.
Then you will not believe your eyes when you put the curtain rod in and you get to see your project in full glory.
I surprised my husband when he returned home from work, with a candlelight dinner on the patio, he almost died when he saw the new BoHo Curtains reflected in the flickering candlelight. We sat outside for hours reminiscing and chatting about our plans in life, our plans to start a DIY Channel of our own. This project inspired both of us!
