How to Make a 2-Toned Button Window Shade

With the right buttons and fabric, this window shade could work in just about ANY style of room. And, dare I say, it's as cute as a button? (My bad.) Anyway, if you'd like to crank one out, here's a list of materials you'll need:

• Measuring tape
• 2 contrasting fabrics, for front and back of shade
• Scissors
• Pins
• Twill tape
• Metal ruler
• Pencil
• Thread
• Sewing machine
• Iron and ironing board
• Seam ripper
• 6 buttons
• Hand-sewing needle
• Tension rod to fit inside window
