Dunn's Dining Drapes

This picture doesn't do this room justice (no offense Julie). Amedium sized window centered in their new dining room was forgettable. We sewd 4 store bought red panels together to create two double width panels. A large rod with wooden rings is more dramatic and traditional. Kyle hung it 3-4 feet out on either side off the window so the new panels cover mostly wall. Across the bottom we hemmed a 16" border of gold silk. This made the store bought panels appear more dramatic and coordinated well with an existing rug that ties everything in the room together. The gold material was purchased from Victoria's Bargain Basement, Ha! (After years of hoarding material, I have a little to share for cheap). Yeah! Custom drapes out of existing materials in this home.
