Dress Up your Window with an Upholstered Cornice!

Hello guys! I'm at 75% done decorating my little munchkin's bedroom. Like, I said in my last post, my next project will be an upholstered window cornice. :)

 This project actually cost me about $12 bucks! Yes! For only $12! Do you know why? My Mother in law found this MDF/Plywood sitting in the Community's dumpster. When she told me about it, I didn't hesitate to get it because it was just the exact board I was looking for at Home Depot. Oh boy! Saved me about 20 dollars. Awesome! Right?

I just basically followed this tutorial right here. Although, my hubby is the one who does the cutting for me. Hehe :) 

 

This is the batting that I used. It's a leftover from my Guest Bedroom Headboard and Master's Bedroom King Bed Project. I covered the Cornice with batting.

Then, I upholstered it. I didn't like the fabric I chose, so I might change it. lol

And it's ready to hang! I used the one that we already got. So another saved for me! The only thing I paid for this project was the fabric, which cost $3.70 per yard. I bought 3 yards. So that's why it amounts to $12 plus tax, of course.

So here it is! My Upholstered Window Cornice! I chose not to put curtains because my little one sometimes thinks he is Tarzan! 

So, how to dress up plain windows without curtains? Use blinds and an Upholstered Cornice!

Here is what the bedroom looks like now. Thank you for reading!
