Need Dark Curtains...

[Heather]

Argh... my kids are waking up at the break of dawn and it's TOO EARLY for me. Since we got in the new house, I haven't been able to find any good curtains. We have blinds up, but no curtains.

Anyone have any good ideas where to get DARK curtains for a good price??

*Hope its okay to put this in this forum... if not feel free to move it. :)

What I did is went to walmart and bought enough polar fleece fabric to cover the windows and to make ties on top and made cheap no sew curtains. I just cut the fabric in half. Made cuts about 2 inches apart and about 10 inches long on top. Tied the cuts in square knots around the curtain rod. They actually do not look that bad considering they cost less than $10 for the fabric and less than 30 minutes time.

Wow - great idea!!! I was just said to DH - The windows get so cold I should just go buy some fleece and use that - all the time thinking I didn't have to sew it!!

But what a great way to do it!!! Thanks!
