I friend got me this mobile. I love it. Since I had all these photos of naked ladies just lying around I thought I would bring the two together. I have it hanging right next to my bed.
You know you love it.

Magnetic Curtains Tutorial
What you will need:
I used this. It is a 22 inch long piece of black metal with three screw holes. I bought it at Ikea. It was very cheap. I had six that I was not using. But you could use anything that is metal. Sheet metal is a good option. You can have the hardware store cut it in a strip or you can cut it with tin snips into whatever shape you would like. Use gloves that shit is SHARP. Then, just screw it into the wall.
The metal piece came with the white octagonal magnets. They aren't very strong. You will need pretty strong magnets. I bought 20 REALLY strong magnets for 10 dollars on amazon. Keep these away from children and pets. If they swallow the magnets they will stick together and pinch intestines.
I sewed my curtains with no curtain rods in mind so it is just a straight panel. Very easy to sew.
Since I had six metal pieces and two windows I used three on each. I put one in the middle so I can close the curtains. I have my windows open a lot so I'm not bothering to close them right now.
Here is what it looks like.
Cheap and Easy. Just like me. Just kidding. I'm not cheap.
- Something metal.
- Strong magnets.

Dear Crazy Keep Everything that Might Even be Misconstrued as a Craft Lauren of the Past,
Awesome job. I found some very cool shit in the bottom of just the box I expected those things to be in. Along with a bunch of tiny confetti hearts, random paper shit, and memories.
Thanks again, and keep up the good work!
