I bought some red tab top curtains for my dining room and knew I wanted to add something to them to make them more interesting and dressier. Y'all know I gotta have me some pretty fabric with a pattern on it - no solid fabric for this girl!
So, I bought 1/2 a yard of this Waverly toile fabric I have already used throughout my home and hot glued together some little toppers and just pinned them to the top of the curtains. I like it because I can change out the fabric very easily and for little money. I may even put some Christmas fabric up there in December. I am already excited about decorating for Christmas because I see all the cute stuff in the stores! Have a great day everybody!!!

They turned out so cute. You are amazingly creative. I need to start thinking about window coverings. I really need to get the window trim finished first! Thanks for the inspiration. Mimi
They look great. I love what the toile adds to plain panels!
Looks great, Angie!
How in the world do you think of all that. Your window is beautiful.

Now that is a great idea! I would love to change my fabric for Christmas. In a perfect world...I could change all of my bedding and furniture too!
Ofcourse, it looks great. You know I love some red.
I can't believe how the look of the panels changed completely! Looks wonderful.
This is a WONDERFUL idea. I can see how easy it would be go get many looks without paying an awful lot. Thanks for another great idea---I don't know how you think of all these!!!

I love what you did with the toile. Black toile is one of my favorites and I try to put a little here and there throughout the house.
I love how you added the toile!
This is a WONDERFUL transformation, for so little work. I love it!!!
I LOVE this! I've never been a hug fan of tab top,and this makes them look so much richer! Love the plates,too.
That is WAY cute!!! You are SO crafty!!!!!
Cute toppers. I never thought about "seasonal/holiday" curtains. Hmmmm.
Love them! And I love the little chalkboard in the previous post too!
I love love your curtains! Great job! I am a lover of toile also. The pattern just makes me all happy!
That is the cutest idea.....I love the "gussied up" tab tops!

Hi Angie,
That is a great idea. They look totally different with the addition of the toile. Much more dressy!
What a great idea !!! Easy and adds so much to a room!

Too cute, and keep the tray transformations coming. I saw a bunch at a yard sale, but passed them up thinking that I surely have at least a few in my attic hiding somewhere. :)
Very cute , great idea. mishelle
So cute!! I always stayed away from tab top curtains because I didn't like the look of them but now you've given me a great idea. Thanks!
I love it!!
Love how your curtains turned out. You did a great job!
Those look great! Such a pretty fabric. I love the little touch of gingham. Ever since reading you blog I have gone through four spools of black gingham ribbon. I am addicted to it. IT looks so great in your home.
AMAZING... So very designer... LOVE the toppers!

Hi Angie, Glad I found you or you found me?:0 he he Anyways, Love your blog, and the curtains are so cute!! Looks like we have the same colors. I love Hobby Lobby too! I was there today. I make things and sell online so I'm there quite often. You can't beat the sales and they do have lots of cute christmas stuff. Glad we found each other! Kristen
Hi Angie! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I love your curtain idea! What a great fix. It will be so much fun to decorate for the holidays and you have a great base color to kick everything off. I'm glad you found me because I really enjoyed checking your blog out too. Love your chalkboard tray!I'll be back!
Ok, I just stumbled upon your blog today. I sat here and looked through until I got to the lampshade recover project. I immediately found my glue gun and recovered a lamp in my living room with fabric I already had. Then I blogged about it and linked MY people to your blog... and I'm STILL sitting here looking through everything. I think I love you! :)
