Canvas Painters Cloth Event Draperies

Here is a quick and easy solution to adding draperies to an event or party decor.
Why not try a canvas painters cloth?


Often times in a large space you need to help ground the area or soften the look.
A great solution is painters cloth. 
It also helps add antoher textural element to this outdoor event.
You can usually pick them up at your local hardware store for between $12-$20 bucks.



We actually have four here.
As you can see we created pleats at the top to help finish the look.
To hang the cloth simply use a staple gun and staple the pleats as you go.
Another tip...don't worry to much about the wrinkles.
Once you hang them and they have hung for a few hours the wrinkles will mostly come out.
If wrinkles persist I would suggest using a steamer, much quicker than ironing.


We didn't even bother sewing the cloths together.
We used simple jute to tie the drapes back.
It created a simple casual look and didn't break the bank.
It is also an easy fabric to dress up or down.

You know in my search to find the perfect mod fabrics to mix in my cottage decor.
I have fallen in love with Kelly Wearstler's Imperial Trellis.

It has been all over blogland for a quit a while now.
I have not discovered a hot new trend.
But I have to tell you every single time I see something in this fabric
I fall head over heals!







So, I ask you.
Fabric fashion trend that has been here and gone?
Or casual elegant modern classic?


I know how I feel.
And...I'm sure from the look of my blog header, I'm sure you can tell.
