    Curtains are a lot easier, especially when you start with pre-fabricated ones that need to be sewn together for wider windows and made shorter.

    • Fit curtains
    • Get loads of needles and make the roughly to size
    • Cut the bottom so you have more then enough fabric to correct mistakes
    • Curse as you forgot that the fabric slides of the table while cutting (leaving you wiuth a few cm left in 1 corner)
    • Hang curtains again to see what you can salvage and correct
    • Decide the curtains in the kitchen won’t reach the work top, just the bottom of the windows.
    • Sew everything together and hang the curtains
    • The slight tilt is ‘by design’ and be done with it. (They cover the windows and keep the cold out, that was the main goal)

    Curtains are visible for only me and my wife, so great items to start with. (I won’t touch clothing for a while, I know I’ll mess it up)
