Personalized Window Treatment {Tutorial}

I've been busy bringing Spring inside my house lately starting with the curtains. As I mentioned here, I was getting very tired of all the dark colors in my house. I love a bright house these days and because I'm not ready to paint my whole downstairs {yet}, I had to find a way to brighten things up. I made these curtains for my sliding door then add some artwork to fill in the gaps. Next, I tackled my kitchen window. We have dark kitchen cabinets {which I'd love to paint white} and had a dark window treatment. Here's the before.
I was happy to take down this window treatment and start over. So, I used some leftover painter's dropcloth that I used for the sliding door windows and got to work. Here's how...
 
The hardest part of this project was cutting out the letters which took only a few minutes. It's really quite simple and not nearly as intimidating as I had thought it would be. I'm ready to find more projects to do with freezer paper!! I've got a huge roll! The possibilities are endless.
I recommend these products for this project:
Reynold's Freezer Paper {I personally use this}
 
I'm sharing this with some of these parties. Stay tuned for more dropcloth tutorials!

    1. I just drew those letters onto the freezer paper freehand. My printer wasn't working at the time. Sorry! If you can't find a font you like, check Pinterest for free fonts to download. You're sure to find something you'll like there.
