Drop it like its….
While putting together a recent post about decorating your home on a budget I was looking for affordable fabric options. I came across several amazing projects using drop cloths in place of fabric. You can have the look of linen or twill for a fraction of the price.
This headboard looks exactly like the Pottery Barn version.
I found several drop cloth pillow covers. Here are two of my favorites. Drop cloths make a great background for getting the look of grain sack.
Another grain sack project, this time in red. This table-cloth came out great!
You can even make rugs!
Hate your sofa? Make a no-sew drop cloth slipcover.
How about a bed skirt from a drop cloth?
Use them for curtains. You can bleach the drop cloth before using to get a softer look as shown in this next picture.
Drop cloth outdoor curtains are a good alternative to expensive outdoor fabrics.
Drop cloths come in a variety of sizes for whichever project you decide to tackle. One tip before you start a drop cloth project, wash & dry the cloth to pre-shrink it. Also, adding bleach to the wash it will lighten up the color as mentioned above. Have you made any drop cloth projects?
Where do you get light weight drop clothes. I live in Washington state. Thanks
