I gathered up the necessary supplies.

The material is a curtain panel I picked up @ Target.

Turned up the tunes Note and got to work!

Per Jena’s instruction!

DO NOT cut the pull cord like I did!

ACK!!!

I had cut the other two pull cords to keep them all the same length.

I tied all three pull cords back to the same length and burnt the ends with a lighter to melt the cord a bit to keep the knots from slipping.

I have never worked with fabric glue before and was surprised at how well the glue held!
