Here’« Easy Way to
Make Draw Curtain«
IT IS easy to make draw curtains
with the fixtures you have, plus
a pair of large screw-eyes, some
wood or brass rings, and about
five yards of cord.
The screw-eyes are placed just
under the hooks for the curtain
rods; then run the cord through
the screw-eye at the right; then
through the rings, knotting it to
the left ring at center; then
through the rings and the screw
eye at the left; and back through
the rings, knotting it to the right
ring at center.
Now pass the cord through the
rings and the right screw-eye and
then make the tassels; raveling
the ends of the cord after making
the knots. Sew safety pins to the
back of the curtains so that they
may be fastened quickly to the
rings.
