Linen Curtains: Napkin valances and apron café curtains

Linen Curtains

Iris flourish

Napkin Valance

What you’ll need:

· Vintage napkins

· Curtain rod or
cording and 2 eye hooks


Drape pretty vintage napkins over a curtain rod, arranging napkin points to overlap slightly. If you want to get fancy, you can replace the curtain rod with cording that you’ve woven through a wide crochet edging or lace before you drape the napkins. Secure the cording at both ends using eye hooks.

Apron Café Curtain

What you’ll need:

· Vintage linen aprons

· Heavy-gauge wire

· 2 eye hooks

· Clothespins


String heavy-gauge wire across the center of your window, using eyehooks on each end.

Using clothespins, hang aprons along the wire, overlapping slightly. If desired, place wide lace across the tops of the aprons under the clothespins.
