I recently moved and was super excited to buy this new shower curtain(don't judge me) only to find out that our shower has a glass door :(
I was in dire need of a tiny curtain to go above the kitchen sink in our new house. Unfortunately, most tiny kitchen window curtains you can find at the store are absolutely hideous. The solution? Use my beloved shower curtain design for kitchen curtain inspiration!

STEPS
1. Measure your window opening and decide how much fabric you are going to need. I ordered a yard for mine just to be safe. You can get your fabric at your local craft store (most of the time) or order it online. I bought mine online at Fabric.com for about $5.00. It's also the plainest fabric out there so the more intricate and high quality fabric you go for, the more expensive it's going to be. Since I'm only planning on living in my current home for a short amount of time and highly doubt there will be another tiny window in my next home, I chose the cheap route.
2. Find a place that sells the skinniest sequin trim ever. I ordered mine online with my fabric but ran out (you're going to need like three yards of this stuff if your window is the same size as mine) luckily the Hobby Lobby down the street from my house had nearly the same kind and I was able to purchase some there without waiting.
3. Sew your curtain. Design Sponge has a lovely tutorial on how to sew your own curtains if you need help or you can watch step-by-step how to sew curtains on YouTube here.
4. Once you have your curtain sewn, it's time to make it sparkle. Decide how far you want each strand to be and cut a nice pile to save time. I wanted mind to have a whimsical feel so I chose to make each strand a different length. After you have a nice pile of individual strands of sequins, whip out your handy dandy glue gun and get gluin.
The final product will be somewhat delicate, so I wouldn't recommend washing this master piece. Enjoy!
