This is a cool idea on how to turn old boxes full of photo slides into a curtain so you can enjoy them from time to time.Plus it will cast some way cool light patterns when the sun hits it just right.

We started drilling all of the little holes.


Then we connected them all together with chainmail rings.

Each panel is made up of 114 slides.  They’re connected on top by rings with those little grippy claw things on them.  They’re really easy to open and close, and provide privacy and look really neat at the same time.

The only thing is how long the slides will last in sunlight without fading.  The bottom half of the curtains especially will receive direct sunlight, but if any of them start fading a ton, we can just replace them with other slides.But it does make pretty patterns in the sunlight.
