Oops! I flew through this project without taking pictures. The ones I have are different shots of the finished skirt.
I could give you a bunch of excuses.
-My flash doesn’t work on my camera. True.
-It was a cloudy day. True.
-Batteries were exhausted in my camera. False.
-Project was too big. True, but that’s never stopped me before.
The truth is, I simply got in the groove with no set plan and forgot to grab my camera. Regardless, I’d like to tell you about it.
I hide store my yarn stash under our bed, but my bed is pretty high off the ground so the sides of the spread do not cover what I have stored. I’ve always wanted a bed skirt, but I built the bed from doors and decking boards. A purchased skirt wouldn’t cover the sides.
Light Bulb Moment!
I buy vintage linens at auction that I use for crafty projects. I had quite a few white tablecloths. They all had different decorative edges, but I made them work for me.
I mixed them up and used the decorative edges for the skirt. The best thing was I didn’t need to hem them. Yay, Me!
My foot board extends to the floor, so I only needed skirts on the sides.
Basic construction-Flat sheet of fabric covering the top of the box springs. The skirts were gathered and attached to both sides.
I love the shabby look!
