This is a super easy and cheap way to make some really cool looking curtains. They add a great arty/colorful look to most rooms and are similar to those bead curtains that you see for sale. To finish this it will take anywhere from 5 hours to a week (depending on how fast you work). This should cost somewhere between $20.00-$40.00.
