Step 1:  
Dixie Belle Chalk Mineral Paint color Peony Curtains 
Take any pair of white or off white curtains...(mine were shear but they can be solid as well) and tie them into knots.  I didn't have any rubber bands so I improvised by tying knots!

Just keep these babies outside until they are FULLY Dry.  Do Not Place them on anything you don't want paint on ;)
