I have most everything in place, except the room was still completely exposed. Since there is no door (c'mon, let's not get carried away with a door when there isn't even a ceiling or steps or walls or anything...), I needed to put up a privacy curtain.
So I went to my local thrift store and found an old sheet to toss together a curtain.
I perused the isles for quite awhile looking for a something to makeshift a swag rod (is that even what they're called). I eventually found something that I thought would work great!

That's right, it's a fork.
And it can just slide off of the nails when not in use.
Landon's not too thrilled with the idea of a curtain at the top of the dungeon stairs, so I had to put something together that is completely removable. Both the curtain and the curtain swagger-jigger will be removed when guests are not here.
It's not totally awesome. It's completely ghetto, actually. But I'm proud of myself for putting this together for $2.20. ($2.00 - bed sheet; .20 - fork)
Come one, come all (well maybe not all - we only have a double bed, after all), we are officially ready for you to spend your weekend with us. We are open for both climbing season and ski season. Open invite!
you're so crafty hannah! and absolutely hysterical!
ReplyDeletei agree, super crafty! i love it!
ReplyDeletei think that's a great idea! If ever I have a dungeon to cover up for visitors, I am going to use the same idea! Way to go Hannah!
ReplyDeleteI love your curtain and the fork is terrific! Did you make the fork or did you buy it bent?
ReplyDeletethanks girls! and anna, i bought the fork in perfect condition and bent it with my super woman hands! haha!
ReplyDeleteHannah bent the fork part-way with her hands, and then I bent it the rest of the way with my mind.
ReplyDeleteFabulous idea! Love the look. Found you on the Shabby Nest. :)
