DIY or curtains for a children’s room step by step:<\/strong><\/p>\n
1. I asked the manufacturer about the shrinkage of the fabric, it was at the level of a few% so before I started sewing the curtains I washed and ironed<\/p>\n
2. I measured and cut the desired length of the material, i.e. the length of the curtains + 2 cm for the top lining + 10 cm for the bottom lining<\/p>\n
2. I put a 1 cm material margin along the side and top of the curtain, attached it with pins and ironed it, took out the pins, put it on again 1 cm and pressed again, thanks to which I got rid of the torn side of the fabric and the unevenly cut top<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n3. I pierced the pressed sides and top of the curtains on a sewing machine<\/p>\n
![\"how](\"https:\/\/agnieszkakudela.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SpodKocyka-Jak-Uszyc-Zaslony-DIY-0019.jpg\")
<\/a><\/p>\n4. To the top of the curtains I sewed a tape to hang and wrinkle the curtains straight<\/p>\n
![\"instructions](\"https:\/\/agnieszkakudela.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SpodKocyka-Jak-Uszyc-Zaslony-DIY-0014.jpg\")
<\/a><\/p>\n5. I hung the curtains on the rods and measured their height<\/p>\n
6. I divided the excess material on the underside of the curtain into two parts and put it on twice, but here I gave up sewing and used a hot hemming strip. It went much faster, it looks very aesthetically pleasing, and nothing happens with the washing either.<\/p>\n
![\"Hemming](\"https:\/\/agnieszkakudela.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SpodKocyka-Jak-Uszyc-Zaslony-DIY-0026.jpg\")
<\/a><\/p>\n7. Curtains are ready!<\/p>\n
![\"zigzag](\"https:\/\/agnieszkakudela.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/SpodKocyka-Jak-Uszyc-Zaslony-DIY-0028.jpg\")
<\/a><\/p>\nIn fact, the sides and top of the curtains can also be pressed hot using the hemming strap, and the sewing tape can be sewn by hand, so I am sure that such curtains are also available for people who do not have sewing machines.<\/p>\n
