Adding curtains to a window that already has a roller shade is a great way to dress up your space and add a warm, homey atmosphere. You might be thinking that an RV doesn’t have the room for this type of project. But, actually, that’s not the case at all. If you’re looking to add a stylish curtain to a window in your camper or boat cabin, this is the project for you! Join us for this fun and easy DIY video tutorial.
There’s not a lot of room in an RV, so you need to make the most of the space you have. Curtain rods are big and take up a lot of valuable wall space. Instead, you can use a curtain track and a product called Sew-On Tab Tape to house your curtain panels. Curtain track is a more streamlined piece of hardware than a curtain rod. Plus, it’s flexible so it can take the curve of your RV or boat interior, and you can mount it easily to the wall or ceiling. It’s a great choice when you want to make your own beautiful, pleated window treatment.
The Sew-On Tab Tape is sewn to the top of the curtain panels. then the tabs are inserted into the curtain track so you can easily slide your curtains open and closed. Not only do these curtains look attractive and provide privacy, but they’re also a great way to tie the room together by using upholstery fabric from another living room project.
