Can t wait to share sneak peeks of our book shoots and other how does this word.
Place the blackout lining inside the fabric with the right side facing up.
Using wraparound rods which bring the drapes all the way around to the wall is another way to guarantee the most light will be blocked.
All you ll need is the beautiful curtains of your choice and a blackout curtain liner or two.
To get the most out of the room darkening qualities measure a couple of inches beyond the window frame on all sides.
Next sew all the edges together to connect the lining to the curtain.
Fold the hems over the blackout lining and pin in place around all of the corners and edges.
We chose clips instead of just hanging them directly on the rod because our windows are a little high in this room and so we bought 95 curtains and 95 blackout panels and i just hemmed them to the right length.
Sleeping until 8 for the past two days has been amazing life saving especially since we ve been going to bed around 2am due to book stuff.
So those diy blackout curtain liners are well worth the fifteen bucks and fifteen minutes spent.
Any curtains that are made from organic cotton linen or hemp are safe bets.
But it s all worth it.
