I used to do this ALL the time! I'd rent a house, never with any curtains. Used to be able to find white sheets in the thrift stores for cheap. U can make them look SO nice!
@@TheJessTayls They DID! Some times I even used just a stapler, but if u staple from the back and do it evenly, u never can notice the staples. The sheets look so fresh and clean. U still get lots of light.
Thank you for this video!!! I just purchased 6 twin xl flats from Walmart and clips from Amazon! I will need to get 10 more twin xl flat sheets for all of my windows!! I'm so excited that I found this video as I was dreading the high cost of pleated curtains!! Can't wait to hang mine in our new townhouse!!!!
Oh my gosh!!!!!!! You just literally opened up a whole new world of possibilities for me!!! Love this idea!! Not only sheets but also you could use those wall tapestries that are everywhere now and come in like a bagillion colors and prints!! I have been searching for curtains for my bedroom for months and I finally bought a pair and got them hung up and they're just... meh. But now I think I've got a new plan thanks to you! So thank you! Liked and subscribed!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Just about to do the same in my dining room, using a huge vintage cotton embroidered table cloth. So your tutorial couldn't have been more timely and helpful. Thankyou! 😁
I will be doing this as our new house has at least 14 windows on bottom level so I am dying to get curtains. But could not find ones I like for less than $25 each. This will save us a ton!
Wow your new house sounds beautiful!!! I love natural light. I hope you love the curtains! I get compliments on mine all the time and have yet to grow tired of them as I made this video over a year ago!
My issue is finding affordable rods long enough. My window is about 15ft and both that and long curtains are so hard to get in Jamaica and expensive to ship
@antoinette4995 no so I had to do a little hack. I joined 4 rods together. So as u know, 1 pack of rod has 2 diff sizes. So start with a bigger 1 for eg, then a small, then a big, then a small. Was grateful for the tip.
I think it depends on how long you are wanting them to be- the longer the rod is the less it can hold up. To be safe I always suggest a rod that is screwed into the wall.
Awesome video. Would love to try this. Question: How high is your ceiling? Mine is 10 ft. Would like to know if the twin size will work for mine. Thanks!
I’m sure they can… but the reason I used twin XL is because they are a little longer and they aren’t as wide. I recommend measuring your wall and then googling the dimensions of the sheets. That way you can fully customize!
Right $140 you pick up brand new curtains and rods I just tried it on a few websites recently and I moved into a new place and I came in under that. 🙂 At least you're hot chica so don't worry about it we all have those moments

That is amazing!!! I get compliments on mine all the time when we have guests. They look so airy and breezy and like you paid a TON for them!
Pretty curtains!❤
Seriously cool!!! Gonna try it and I never knew there was such a thing as curtain rings with hooks! Wow!

This is the sweetest ever!!! and yes that is SUCH a good idea!! Thank you so much for subscribing :)
It was not confusing, you actually made it a lot easier to get it even. They came out really nice
Thank you!!
Beautiful idea I use to cut a hole in the top of the flat sheet and run a regular curtain rod through it but this is much nicer Thank-you!
Love this! My mom & grandma used to do this. Nice high-end look. Thx
Aww grandmas know best right?! It does look high end 😏
Just came across this video. Love the idea. Quick question, I couldn't tell, is that a Merle Sheltie that ran by in the background at about 2:25
Haha thank you!! He’s a Pomeranian
@@TheJessTayls awwww, he wanted to make sure everyone got a chance to admire him :)
Thanks so much for this video - it helps me with my project!

Ahhh I love that idea!!! I hope it turns out awesome for you 😍
Nice job my mom used to do that when I was a kid
Looks beautiful x
Awsome job, did the same with mine and love it.
They look beautiful!!
Thank you so much!! I love them- i get complimented on them when guests come over and they look so expensive!
Thank you for tutorial, your curtains look great. Where did you get the clips to hang the curtains?
Everything is from amazon and linked in the description box 🥰
This is such a great tutorial!
Thank you so much!!

@@empresslee8764 Hi, did you ever find anywhere in Jamaica (or elsewhere) to get the rid/curtains?
@antoinette4995 no so I had to do a little hack. I joined 4 rods together. So as u know, 1 pack of rod has 2 diff sizes. So start with a bigger 1 for eg, then a small, then a big, then a small. Was grateful for the tip.
Does anyone know whether a tension rod would hold these up or whether they need to be screwed to the wall?
I think it depends on how long you are wanting them to be- the longer the rod is the less it can hold up. To be safe I always suggest a rod that is screwed into the wall.
What's twin size sheets. Is it single bed sheets?
These are flat sheets for “XL TWIN”. One flat sheet for each panel. If you google “XL TWIN FLAT SHEET” you may be able to find them!
80” for the X- long. reg twin is 75”.

Awesome video. Would love to try this.
Question: How high is your ceiling? Mine is 10 ft. Would like to know if the twin size will work for mine. Thanks!
I believe our ceilings are 9 feet... or 9.5 I am honestly not 100% sure. but you can always put the rod higher or lower on your wall.
Ikea has pairs of linen curtains for 29.99 - 50" wide per panel x 108" long I used them ----OMG they look so pretty!
@@marybethlongstreth186 omg linen is such a good idea!!! Thanks for sharing
What an awesome idea!!
I get so many compliments on them when people come over!!
Where did you find your extra long curtain rods?
I linked the exact one in the description box 🥰 I got everything from Amazon!
Can queen or king sheets be used?
I’m sure they can… but the reason I used twin XL is because they are a little longer and they aren’t as wide. I recommend measuring your wall and then googling the dimensions of the sheets. That way you can fully customize!
what size sheets? did you say twin size?
Twin XL!
Thank you!
Great idea!!!
Thank you!! I love them
I saw a poodle!!!
Super Super thanks.
Just awesome.....
❤
Nice
You need more panels
She is just doing s demo
I guess you better buy good quality or at night it looks like a gost haus.
Way too much for bed sheets.. you can just go to marshalls or ikea.
If you can find only XL twin sheets yes!! Marshall’s and ikea are my favorite places 🤩
Right $140 you pick up brand new curtains and rods I just tried it on a few websites recently and I moved into a new place and I came in under that. 🙂 At least you're hot chica so don't worry about it we all have those moments
