Wow.. I am so impressed. You did an excellent job... I would have never thought about cutting the tabs and flipping the curtains. Thumbs up..

I don’t like grommets either! I found beautiful curtains that I love. I ordered them longer hoping to cut off the grommets and do something different with it. This is genius! Totally doing this! Thank you!

What a fantastic idea!

You didn't actually show the finished product. Where's the shot of the full curtain with the gray fabric added?

Lisa Pertzborn The curtains are shown in the space mural video. A room tour is coming soon to feature all of the projects.

Love it, thanks!

Super creative!

I don't know why it didn't strike me to use the padded fabric between the grommets for the tabs, duh. Thanks for the idea. These work much better than plain unpadded fabric from the excess fabric.

You could've achieved a very similar look just by using the cardboard tubes that hold toilet paper. All you have to do is just place them on the rod between grommets. I don't like grommets either but this hack disguises them.

You don’t have to sew!!!! There are no sew alternatives to getting rid of grommets. Check out how easy it is to use fabric tape in this video No Sew Pillow Covers #nosew #nosewpillow kzread.info/dash/bejne/hmuczriSnsXYksY.html

This is a nice idea if your curtains need to be shortened. I am not a fan of grommet curtains either. Thank you.

Yes, this is a wonderful solution if you can purchase longer curtains

Wow, just gave me an idea

Used to like grommet curtains but now I hate them! Do you have any advice on how to turn grommet curtains into back tab curtains by 1. A no sew method AND 2. Without taking any length off the curtains? I know, I’m asking for the impossible haha! BUT your video has me wondering if there’s a way to fold over the grommet and pin/clip the curtains in such a way that the grommets are inside the fold (unseen on the side facing the room because of the folding and unseen to the side facing outside because the rod is always higher than the window therefore the “ugly side” will face the wall)? Thanks for your inspiration!

@WeekendswithWinnie

Yes and no 😬 Yes, a no sew method for adding tabs would be to create the tabs with scrap fabric and use the hem tape in this video kzread.info/dash/bejne/hmuczriSnsXYksY.html. You can fold the portion of the curtain with grommets and pin it down, but you’ll loose the length 😩. I’ll keep thinking and reply with any new solutions

Genius!!!!!!

Would cutting the grommets section off shorten the length of the curtains?

@WeekendswithWinnie

3 жыл бұрын

Yes! I suggest purchasing the next length up or adding fabric to ensure you have the desired length. I’ve done both and the curtains look amazing!

I thought you would teach how to remove grommet.

@WeekendswithWinnie

Жыл бұрын

Oh no, the holes would still be there. Plastic grommets will pop apart & metal grommets are not worth the trouble to remove.

Looks better with the grommets it’s a matter of preference I guess
