thanks! cheers for the idea and instructions on this. i've always been put off before, but these were really easy to make.
here is what the white one looks like
Ihould have ironed the white fabric a bit more, i had to use double the amount so that it wasn't seethrough and this made it harder to staple in at the back and it was quite a snug fit.
now the hassle of trying to put them up. i'm just going to lean them against the wall/window for the time being!
