Office Closet Curtain

The office has moved to the den closet.
More on that later, but for now, the important details:
A curtain along the top shelf hides our books.

The curtain was in need of a little detail.
It looks so plain and drab.

So out comes the crochet hook.
A row of chains in turquoise, then a row of sc in turquoise, as well.
Then a row of shells (*1 sc, sk st, 5 dc in same st then sk st*, repeating from * to * to end) 
in multi-colors leftover from the big Tilda yarn purchase
The perfect yarn for this trim!
Pinned in, then hand sewn on.

And there you have it!
No more plain and drab.

I like it.
Even the NVO likes it!
What do you think?

  21. Moi, j'en pense que c'est un ravissant galon qui finit joliment bien ce rideau uni. Une touche de gaîté de plus, car les tiroirs colorés sont également très décoratifs.
    Encore une très belle idée Astri !!!
    Bonne fin de semaine et joyeux week-end ;-)
