How Do You Make A Blackout Curtain Liner?
Believe it or not, you can turn your room into a sleep-until-noon cave without having to live in a gothic black-curtained room. Here’s how. Step 1 Pick up 2-3 yards of blackout curtain fabric. If you can’t find the right material, any heavy, dark fabric works well. Fleece is great. If your curtains are a light color, try to find a thick grey material, as it will show through less. Cut it down so that it’s 1 inch shorter than your curtains on three sides and even along the top. Step 2 Using a shade of thread that matches your curtains, stitch the tops of the curtains and the liners together. No need to hem it. Step 3 Loop your newly-lined curtains over the curtain rod to measure how much room you’ll need to leave for it. Stitch it up and enjoy an uninterrupted night (or afternoon) of sleep!
