Summarize the following:
Measure the height and width of the space you want to cover, such as under a bed or desk. Sew a curtain panel according to these measurements, then slide it onto a tension rod. Insert the tension rod under the bed or desk legs, then adjust the curtain to your liking. Instead of sewing 1 long panel, sew 2 to 3 narrower panels. This will make it easier to access the things you need. This works great for bunk beds, shelves, and entertainment cabinets. You can even use it in place of closet doors. If you have a cat, place the litter box under a table, then cover the sides of the table with your makeshift curtains. Slide small metal pails onto a tension rod, then place the rod into a sunny window. Place potted herbs into the pails for an instant, mini herb garden! Don't plant the herbs directly into the pails as they don't have good drainage. Put them into smaller plastic pots first, or leave them in the pots that they came in. Place 2 tension rods inside a deep drawer, 1 on each side. Get some hanging file folders meant for a filing cabinet, and place them inside the drawer; the hooks will sit right on the rods. Place the rods down the length of the drawer on the left and right sides. Don't place them towards the front and back. The rods need to be high enough so that they can hold up the folders. About 10 inches (25cm) from the bottom should be enough. Thin, slender rods will work the best for this. Don't use thicker ones, or they will create too much bulk. Decide on the height of your pet barrier, then sew a curtain panel that has a pocket on both the top and bottom edges. Slide a tension rod through each pocket, then insert it into your doorway. If you need to, use thumbtacks to secure the sides of the curtain to your doorframe. The bottom edge of the curtain must have a pocket and be attached to the bottom rod, otherwise your pet will just crawl under it. Use 1 panel for this, not 2, otherwise your pet will find a way to crawl between the panels. The barrier needs to be tall enough so that your pet can't climb over it, but low enough so that you can step over it. Simply close all of your drawers, and slide your tension rod vertically down through all of the handles. Keep in mind that this only works with drawers that have C-shaped handles, and not with knobs. This is best for drawers that you don't use regularly, as you will need to remove the tension rod each time that you want to open them. This is also a great solution for nosey pets who have learned how to open drawers.
Hide clutter with custom curtains. Place a tension rod in a sunny window and hang plants from it. Convert a deep drawer into a filing cabinet with 2 tension rods. Attach a tension rod to both sides of a curtain to create a pet barrier. Slide a tension rod through the handles of drawers to baby-proof them.
