Ways and suggestions for the manufacture of picks for curtains
One of the options for a homemade grab forcurtains - make it from multi-colored decorative cords. They can be braided or simply twisted. The ends of the cords should be decorated with tassels or pampushki. To make tassels, you need to take a flat board or cardboard with a width equal to the expected length of the tassel. Yarn or threads of a color suitable for the cord should be wound on this plane, carefully remove the skein from the board. To make this process easier, the yarn should not be wound very tightly, let there be a little slack. When removed, you should get an elongated skein, one end of which should be tied with a strong thread, stepping back 1 cm from the edge. At the other end, you get a loop that you just need to cut. The yarn will immediately fluff up, forming a chic tassel. The volume depends on how much yarn is wound on the board. If the ends of the tassels are decorated with pampushki, then the balls can be sewn from fur, knitted from fluffy mohair yarn. For this purpose, molds made from cut plastic bottles will look interesting. The molds can be decorated with beads, hand-made flowers, and bright ribbons. An amazing curtain clip can be made from an old CD. To do this, use a compass to draw a circle on it that is 1-1.5 cm smaller than the disk's circumference. Along this line, cut out the middle of the disk using a saw, drill, or scissors; it will not be needed later. But the resulting "donut" is the blank for the clip. If the edges where the cut was made are burred and uneven, they can be corrected with a file. Next, you should start decorating. You can wrap this blank in a circle with satin tape, and then glue decorative stones, beads, or glitter onto the plane of the circle. Here, everything depends on the imagination and taste of the craftswoman. For this clip, you will need a knitting needle for fastening. This device will function as follows: at the place where the drapery is fixed, the curtain fabric needs to be pushed into the circumference of the disk, and a knitting needle should be inserted on the other side, it will not allow the fabric to be released from the clamp. Another option is just a strip of beautiful fabric. You need to fold the material in half lengthwise, stitch along the edge and turn it inside out. Iron the workpiece. In the middle of the workpiece, make two more longitudinal lines at a distance of about 2 cm from each other. Using a pin, insert a satin braid or decorative cord into the middle, gather the material into gathers. You will get a curtain tieback with lush ruffles. The edges of the ruffles can be tied with lace.
