Works For Me: Not a Blessed Thing

WfmwheaderMmmmm...you know what's working for me today?  Taking a break from Works-For-Me Wednesday, that's what!  While my poor little brain cells refresh themselves, I'm running an old WFMW (one of my first, actually) today.   

I have a couple of rooms in my house that have awkwardly-placed closets.  In both rooms, opening the closet doors was tricky, causing us to bang into furniture or other doors.  So I took down the doors and made curtains for those closet openings--problem solved!  And it actually looks pretty cute.  Here are the examples:

In my daughter's bedroom (behind the curtain there is a gate up to keep her from destroying her closet!):

Closet1

And in the kids' bathroom (the room is so small I couldn't get a full-length shot of the curtain, but you get the idea):

Closet2

Really, you don't have to be able to sew to do this--you could even do it by hand if you don't have a machine.  It's just a giant rectangle with a foldover at the top to slip in a spring-loaded cafe curtain rod.  Just make the width of it roughly 75% wider than the width of the doorway, and you're in business.

Have an idea you'd like to share with all of Bloggityville?  Leave your link below.  WFMW guidelines can be found here.  If you don't have a blog, you're welcome to leave your WFMW tip in my comments section.
