I finally found the perfect fabric and completed the curtains for the Little Deuce Coop yesterday and hung them. I saw somewhere in this forum that someone had used bulldog clamps fastened to the tops of the header for the blinds so that's the way I did these. I clipped a clamp rolleyes.gif to the top at both ends and in the middle, laid the curtain rod with the curtains between the tops of the clamp and tied the tops together securely. They are very sturdy and look fine. I was able to find stainless steel clamps too. Then I used a rustic heavy twine for the tie backs and it fits the idea of a Coop. They are secured to a drapery hook and easily adjusted to have them open or pulled back.
We're de-winterizing and getting ready to start the 2006 season. anim_bannana.gif
