I was in Marshall's today looking for silk or faux silk scarves to frame for my foyer, and boy did I hit pay dirt! I found these four scarves (the top green one I got on ebay and I will use it somewhere else):
Here are cropped closeups of them together. It's hard to picture, but they will look so much better ironed and framed. I will probably use 3 of these 4, but I'm not sure which three yet:
I hope it looks as good as I am picturing, which is something like these inspiration photos:
Next, I walked by the tablecloths and decided to take a look. I don't usually buy them, so I wasn't that familiar with sizes. It turns out a lot of them are 60" x 84". Well, guess what else is 84" long? Most curtains. Hmmmm.....
Most of them are bolder than I would ever do on a window, but you could cut them and frame them or use them as a shower curtain. Even the 84" lengths are about 25% wider than a standard curtain, which is nice, too.
I love this for a shower curtain:
And these colorful ones for shower or window curtains, especially for kids' rooms:
But some were perfect for neutral room windows, too. Like these Calvin Klein ones - I opened that back and I swear it is thicker and nicer than most store bought curtains, and sooo much less money:

Have any of you ever framed scarves or used tablecloths as curtains? It sounds so tacky, but they were really nice and I'd love to try it.
