Cornice with own hands from the branches of a tree
Curtains are traditional and oftenan integral element of room design, preserving our privacy from the eyes of other people. Nowadays the market offers a very wide selection of both window curtains and curtain rods for them. You can choose any option that fits perfectly into your interior, but all this will require some financial costs. We invite you to see how you can quickly, easily and without major investments make a cornice with your own hands in eco-style. 
In order to make a cornice with your own hands, you will not need many tools and materials:
- more or less straight and dry branches of a tree;
- sandpaper;
- saw;
- drill and screws;
- if desired, paint for wood or varnish;
- Curtains, preferably light and simple, made of natural material.
How to make a cornice with your own hands from a branch
Start by choosing the right shape and sizebranches. Clear them of small knots so that you can put the curtains on and move them along the curtain rod. You can use sandpaper to sand the edges of the curtain rod and its top to make it easier for the curtains to slide. If you wish, you can completely clear the branch of bark and varnish it or paint it in some color, but still the whole beauty of such a cornice is in its naturalness and rough naturalness, with all the traces left by insects and weather. Saw off two short, but quite strong and wide parts from the branch, attach them to the wall with self-tapping screws. Attach the main curtain rod with the curtain already installed to these parts. Curtains can be hinged - they are hung on the eaves using loops made from the main fabric or any finishing fabric. Curtains with ties can be tied to the cornice after its installation. The curtain can also have a drawstring; it fits directly onto the curtain rod.
You can additionally decorate the finished cornice with your own hands with small branches. This window decor makes you closer to nature and the space more comfortable.
