I canNOT sew, SO that limited me a lot...I tried buying a shower curtain and tying it to the rod in the openings, but it looked sparse, so I took it down.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">And THEN!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I came across a great trick to making a Roman Shade with absolutely no sewing whatsoever! And the best part was, I already had the fabric and the mini-blinds from the instructions.....so I want to share my final result and then direct you to this tremendously creative woman that I learned from!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">See how nicely they compliment our existing black/white quilt? And because I already had all the materials, they cost me NOTHING but some time...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Check her out! She's a genius, too!!

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Here is a Bird Feeder I made out of 2 existing plates- one was already painted like a beautiful sunflower, so I painted the other one to match...</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kXW_FRODjyU/T0HCkLpr6NI/AAAAAAAACeE/FWPomZIg7Ng/s1600/041+%282%29.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kXW_FRODjyU/T0HCkLpr6NI/AAAAAAAACeE/FWPomZIg7Ng/s320/041+%282%29.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Then I just glued the two together! Can't decide whether to stake it in the yard, or hang it on chain...either way, it will be a unique bird feeder for about $7 total~</span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Here's another idea for the birds!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">I was able to use a couple of things I already had and wasn't using- a metal plant stand, and a handful of colorful rocks- and combined it with...this beautiful bowl from, once again, the Goodwill!! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">There was a hole in the bottom, so I super-glued one of the rocks over it and let it dry, thereby allowing it to hold water! I know, genius, right? ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />

</span><br />
<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The plate was so beautiful on it's own, I just couldn't resist!!
