I had them quite a long time ago and don't have them anymore. I suspect they were from Target, where I got a lot of home decor at the time. These are very similar: https://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Sahara-Rod-Pocket-108-inch-Curtain-Panel/4155112/product.html. And these too? https://www.atgstores.com/curtains-drapes/lush-decor-c212-geo-blackout-window-curtain-set-of-2-_12319314.html?ppc=2615&af=2615&cm_mmc=sce_google&s_kwcid=AL!4500!3!104601327203!!!g!61865531738!&gclid=CJjetNiiptECFRlXDQodnasBBg&ef_id=VQiLqgAABGCkigOR:20170103151736:scasey at loft and cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180716705337502674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3948097068702714071.post-77396991752065890272016-12-18T14:56:01.161-05:002016-12-18T14:56:01.161-05:00Hi there!

I guess how strange a single panel would look depends on the fabric. A solid, like the one in the last picture in the post, wouldn't look bad at all. Good luck!casey at loft and cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180716705337502674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3948097068702714071.post-36374496374221036892013-12-22T12:50:37.717-05:002013-12-22T12:50:37.717-05:00I would love to use curtains instead of a door to ...I would love to use curtains instead of a door to my bedroom. My concern is that the bedroom would have the front of the curtain but the back of the curtain would face the hallway. Wouldn't this look strange?

I use two closet rod pole supports, a bamboo rod/pole (because I like the look, though you could use a shower or curtain rod or any pole, really), and that's it. If your curtains don't have a pole pocket header, you can use clip rings to hang them from the pole. Good luck on your project and let me know how it goes!casey at loft and cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07180716705337502674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3948097068702714071.post-16411396041118084822013-06-27T11:47:19.252-04:002013-06-27T11:47:19.252-04:00Wow!

I was looking for curtain ideas for my closet (we took out the door because the room was so small) but I also got the great idea of replacing the pantry door. I would have never thought of that! <br /><br />My big question is: What hardware and materials did you use?

The problem is that the living room is in the front of the apartment, right by the front door and I desperately need more privacy. I picked up some curtain panels today that I really like, and plan to mimic the way they were used in the pic from Domino. My only concern is length. The doorways are 82" tall and the standard 84" panel works fine when down. But I'm wondering if I should use 96" panels so when the curtain is swagged it doesn't look too short. However, when the curtain is closed it will be too long. Any suggestions?ToBFlyhttp://tobfly.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3948097068702714071.post-33013005733508565082010-12-21T16:43:12.649-05:002010-12-21T16:43:12.649-05:00Great post - I love the blue curtains you picked o...Great post - I love the blue curtains you picked out.

We can't really do much about the door itself but I've been toying with the idea of adding a hint of curtain to the doorway of the bathroom. <br /><br />Love your idea and thanks for sharing.<br /><br />Take care.<br /><br />StephanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3948097068702714071.post-67486700621152172262010-07-03T17:01:38.188-04:002010-07-03T17:01:38.188-04:00You should visit my house....talk about crazy door...You should visit my house....talk about crazy doors.
