No Sew Curtains

I made some curtains for my dining room window out of the fabric I caught on sale from Joann's. I didn't sew it though... mainly because the type of fabric is was, I knew I would mess it up somehow.

So I pinned and then did an iron-on hem on it!
I didn’t hem the sides or the bottom and you can only tell if you look really close. The edges are a little frayed.... but I think it looks ok!

In the photos, the fabric looks really shinny, but in real life it is not.

Now I can’t decide which way I like it best...

Help me decide.

1. Hanging straight
2. Pinned back

3. Hanging straight with a valance behind it


4. Pinned back with a valance behind it

Hanging straight, no valance. It looks really good!!!

Both look good! How about putting up some of those black, metal tie-backs on the walls.....then you could pull back or hang down??

I like it with no valence. Either tied back (more fancy) or straight both look awesome!
