Deck of Cards Window Treatment

Game Room Window Treatment

Ann Siper
This awesome Deck of Cards window treatment is the simplest way to incorporate a poker, game night, or deck of cards design into your home, kitchen, family room, or even a home office. Deck of Cards window panels let light in through the holes you poke and cut in them.

You can find Deck of Cards at your local grocery store, Wal Mart and even Target!

To make this simple Deck of Cards window treatment you will need:

Deck of Cards (1 - 2)

Rivets

Riveter

Floral wire

Hammer

Sheet of Paper (optional)

Black fine tip Sharpie

Two Teacup hooks

Two ribbons 20 inches long

1 - 2 yards of ribbon

Hot glue

Scissors

Tape Measure

The first step is to measure how wide and tall the inside of your window frame is. I like to make this simple Deck of Cards window treatment fit the bottom half of the window, but that are up to you. The Deck of Cards window treatment will block a good bit of light, so keep that in mind.

Cut out a piece of paper that is the same size you want to make your Deck of Cards window panel. Use this as a guide to help you lay out the pattern of cards you want.

Now, once you have your pattern established start using your rivet tool to punch out holes in the overlapping game card pieces.

Next, use the rivets to attach the pieces together to form the window panel.

You could also punch your holes with a hole punch for paper.

Go ahead a use the rivet to poke a hole in the top right and top left of the Deck of Cards window panel.

Run a bead of hot glue along the edge of the Deck of Cards panel. Cut your ribbon into four pieces that are each as long as one side of the window panel. Lay half of the ribbon on the front of the panel and press onto the glue. Repeat on all four sides.

Now, flip the piece of Deck of Cards window panel over. Run beads of glue along each edge of the back of the cards. Press the other half of ribbon down on the back. This will add some more color to your poker themed window treatment as well as provide you will a beautiful finished edge.

You can skip this ribbon step if you want though!

You also do not have to make this Deck of Cards window treatment as large as your window. You can hang it in the middle and still have an awesome designer poker room look.

Insert 20-inch ribbon through each hole you made in the top left and top right corner.

You can use a pushpin to attach each side of the Deck of Cards panel to your window. Just push them into your window frame.
