Curtains are tough for me. \u00a0 I had a hard time figuring out what I wanted in our dining room. \u00a0We had blah cream curtains hanging in there left over from the previous owner, \u00a0and they were too short, too wrinkled, and too everything. \u00a0I wanted some curtains that would go from the ceiling to the floor and be fun and interesting. \u00a0When my mom was here, we decided to used some of our down time while the cabinet paint dried to DIY some curtains.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We looked at fabrics but ended up buying two pre-made white panels at Target. \u00a0They were 95 inches long, just what the room needed. \u00a0We decided to buy a cute stencil at JoAnn’s and to spiff them up on our own.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

\u00a0We selected three colors. \u00a0We used yellow as the dominate color and added bright green and a little black for more detail.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We spread the panels out on our living room floor and painted the yellow pattern on both first. \u00a0We liked this medallion because we didn’t want anything that looked country.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then we added the green and then the black. \u00a0In all it took about two hours. \u00a0Not every single pattern came out exactly the same, but that is what makes stenciling so fun and so personal.<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

We love the way they look in the room. \u00a0They are the length we need, and they go well with a light we also reinvented. \u00a0We plan to hang plantation shades to match the rest of the windows in our house and to give us (and our neighbors) some privacy.<\/h3>\n
