KENNETH: Hi, I’m Kenneth Wingard from Home Made Simple on OWN.  Today I’m going to take some silk flowers and a curtain panel to make some custom draperies for your kitchen.  Hi Ladies!

TONI & ALEXIS:  HI!

KENNETH:  I love how our dining nook is coming along.  But I’m thinking that those white drapery panels just need a little like...you know kick it up a little notch.

ALEXIS:  Kick.

TONI:  Kick...Sass. Yes,

KENNETH:  Yeah a little sass—there you go!  For this project all I’m going to need is my curtain panel, some silk flowers, some yarn, and a glue gun.  You want to think about the composition of this.  So, if this is our window....this is going to be the side that is nearest the wall, and this will be the opening.  So we want to sort of focus our flowers on this area so that when you pull the curtain open, you know most of it will be here.  Does that make sense?

TONI & ALEXIS:  Yes.  Sounds great. 

KENNETH:  We’re going to get rid of all of our stem and leaves.  Why don’t we give a little cut?  Let’s start our first stem.  And then what we’ll do is just cut some smaller pieces.  And we’ll do like the leaf there.  And then maybe we’ll do a taller leaf.  That is adorable. 

ALEXIS:  Yeah, that’ll work.  (LAUGHS)

KENNETH:  We’ll remove our blooms for a moment.  And we’ll remove our leaves. And then all we’re going to do is lift up the yarn and just run a bead of glue, and drop the yarn down.  Here, you can go slower you don’t have to go so fast there.  To your base, and pinch it a little bit up here so you get a nice little point.  Boom baby!  (LAUGHS)
