\"VIntage<\/p>\n

Do you have vintage linens that have been handed down to you or that you’ve found in thrifting adventures, but are stored away in a cupboard?<\/p>\n

Think about making them into easy cafe-styled curtains which transform these treasures into something functional and also allows you to enjoy their beauty and uniqueness on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

\"Cottage<\/p>\n

When we remodeled our bathrooms, we replaced the dated, foggy windows with clear single-hung versions since we wanted to maximize the natural light in the rooms. Cafe curtains were an easy solution for both bathroom windows – they provide privacy, but still let in light above the curtain.<\/p>\n

With nothing but a single line of straight-stitching, I was able to use two pieces of vintage linen – one a pulled-thread cotton and the other a hemstitched pure linen – to create one-of-a-kind curtains.<\/p>\n
