Simple Kitchen Curtains

My kitchen windows needed curtains badly, even though they have blinds.  As much as I love those blinds, they're white which is fine but my windows needed some pizzazz.  Some more umph!

So, I made these simple curtains with red & white checkerboard fabric, and some sashes with black & white gingham fabric for contrast.

I even attached some matching bows at the bottom of each sash.  I can be a girly-girl sometimes too you know?!

This window was great to work with.  One of my favorite spots in the morning as I sip my coffee and have my devotions.

Curtains also match my Fowl Art paintings!  Really simple to make,...really, just a little time consuming.

I'm done with my kitchen for now.  I've neglected most of the other rooms in our bungalow.  I so want to show you the rest of it but I need to go pour some pizzazz on some other projects on my to-do list.
Until next time,

    Love the contrasting gingham check.

    All over blog-land, I'm seeing people making their own window treatments, and I love it!!

    Have a great weekend.

    1. Thank you Kerin. It's so much cheaper, time consuming but cheaper. I can't afford the kind I I want so I decided to make my own.
