My idea was to make a little curtain. I had a beautiful scarf from a thrift store that I hadn't found a purpose for yet, and lo-and-behold, it ended up being the exact right size! Yee-haw! (I don't think I have ever said yee-haw in real life). All I had to do was fold down one side and sew across to form a hem. Of course, I had a little help from my trusty orange kitty.
Then, I found a short tension curtain rod and slipped it in. It fit right across the top of the shelf. Voila!
It is a little too long and touches the floor, so I may hem up the bottom a bit. I haven't decided yet. In hindsight, I probably could have just folded down a bit more on the top. Oh well, live and learn :)
that's a great idea and a very pretty scarf! I seriously love your cat :)
ReplyDeleteSo cute! My sister and I made some curtains the same way for my mom a few years ago to cover the bottom shelves of some bookcases she stores things on in her kitchen. It's such a simple fix for covering cluttered shelves. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat idea - lovely scarf and I love your very intent cat!
ReplyDeleteI love that it looks like you're explaining the process to Milo. :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, Megan S was here this weekend and we reminisced about our lovely trip out to see you last summer. We can't wait to visit again sometime! :)
Great idea! I love how cats just sit there and stare at you when you're trying to do something.
