I made 2 craft table skirts today and it is very easy to do. I first picked up some Kitchen curtains, hooks and curtain rods. They were 36" long so I had to hem them up to fit my tables 30" high. I'm not really a sewer but I can do some basics. This was just a straight stitch across. I folded the fabric from the top 2 times where the rod pockets are since I couldn't hem the from the bottom. I sewed at the edge of the fabric keeping the rod pockets in tack so I could still use them. I drilled holes in my table and screwed in the hooks. I attached the rods and slide on the curtains. Easy, Easy! I was surprised it really didn't take all that long.

Mary, they look great and what a great idea using the curtains!!! Yes, looks pretty easy -- I may even be able to do that!!!
Beautiful! Can you tell me where you got the curtains?
I bought the curtains at walmart. It was really easy to do.
where did you get the hooks? Did them come with the curtain rods?
Teresa I got them in the hardware section at Walmart. In the store near me it was back where the paint mixer and painting supplies are.
