This week I'm showcasing my fabric tassel curtains I made for my classroom. I saw them in a teammate's room last year and decided to make them my summer project. I bought 5 fat quarter fabric bundles and 2 rolls of ribbon from Hobby Lobby to create my curtains.

I cut each piece into 12 strips, about 1.5 inches wide on the 18 inch side the other is 22 inches. |

Here are all 300 strips in all their glory! This was enough to make two (150 on each) 78 inch long tassel curtains. |

Here they are hung in my classroom. |
As you can see my classroom is finished! I posted before and after pics below. We got the email two weeks ago that our wing would be ready effective last Monday. So I spent Monday-Wednesday moving desks, decorating and unpacking boxes. I had to move rooms this year but my new room is basically the same floor plan except I now have a cinder block corner that I didn't have before so that literally threw my old floor plan off and I needed to regroup, LOL. Teachers report on the 28th and I won't be back until then, welp, that's not true, I am going back to shampoo my classroom carpet, it's gross!

Before- see the two separate set of desks, had to move the set on the left myself since they didn't belong to me! |

I'll do a more detailed classroom tour at the end of the month. Looking for more Made It Monday ideas, check out 4th Grade Folics!
Those curtains look great! I hope you have a great school year.
