Upcycled Curtains

 

Up-cycling.

One of those trendy words for re-using stuff. Nowadays, if Money For Nothing  has taught me anything, it's a shorthand for trendy overpriced tat, but back in the early sixties, it was normal practise for ladies like Hildegard Froom (shown on the left)  to convert some well-loved curtains in to a .... trendy(?) dress for Church Socials etc.

Curiously, four years later, Hildegard would upcycle this dress into a stylish pair of curtains. Preoper recycling.

Bonus - For a SuperChristmas
