Transform Vintage Sheets Into Curtains, Pillows and Chair Pads

Go to any thrift store and buy a unique vintage bed sheet. They come in some amazing floral prints, etc.! These sheets were made really well and hold up great over time. Take home and then thoroughly wash them clean. With some simple sewing skills, you can cut and sew up to make chair pads, throw pillows and coordinating curtains. All from one large (queen or full) vintage sheet! A rare, beautiful and quaint way to decorate any room in your house.

What a great idea!! Saves a lot of money too. I also take 2 full size sheets each different and a blanket for the middle sew it together (like you would a quilt)Tie here and there and you have a nice warm cover for the bed and its reversible. If you get the matching pillowcases add wide lace to the edges and use them on the bed as pillow shams. GREAT BARGAIN!
