Bored of your shower curtains? Here’s an idea – instead of replacing it with a regular one, why not repurpose old vintage bed sheets into your own custom shower curtains. :)
If you still have your favorite vintage bed sheets stacked somewhere, take them out and use them for this easy DIY project.
This project is a great way to give your bathroom a personalised and fresh look. You can also revive an old childhood favourite with a new purpose!
Now although this is about using your old bed sheets, the idea is also a great option for when you can’t find a good design in the shower curtains department. For instance if you are looking for a certain character or TV show print, bed sheets usually have them! You can look at thrift stores or garage sales if you want to save some money ;)
