Sewing easy D.I.Y Van Curtains with magnets | Mitsubishi Express DIY Van Conversion part 13

How to sew simple, and easy curtains for your van conversion. out of some off-cuts of particle board I had leftover from the build. This is my process for creating an installing some simple curtains out of fabric and some wire. I bought some heavy duty material from Spotlight that matched the theme of my van, some wire from Bunnings and had this job knocked out over a weekend. This was my second attempt at making curtains and I made these to replace my original creation. The best addition I made to this set was sewing in little magnets in the bottom corners of the curtains, this aids with supporting the curtains in place as well as creating a tighter seal around the window, ensuring less light gets in for a better nights sleep.
