The Nester was one of the first blogs I ever read, 
and was smitten immediately.
Especially when I saw her category

I've been creating my own
no sew
window treatments ever since.

The latest mistreatment was in Jonas's bathroom


I used 2 yards of this bird fabric that I found
at Fabric.com
($15.)

the secret to this valance is this...


a tiny little nail.

I just folded and fluffed, 'til it looked right, 
then tapped in a small picture hanging nail.
No liner, no seams, not even hot glue.



The blue bird is where I pulled the color for the ceiling from

silver marlin - BM

the walls

revere pewter - BM


here's a shot of all the colors together

  2. I love this "mistreatment". As a stager, we like to use window treatments but can't buy a lot of them but there's so many great fabrics, we'll definitely be trying this!
