I don't know what age your neices are, but character curtains are often for sale in charity shops. Or really old 70s curtains make an excellent retro look which is quite fashionable, if they're older.

I made one out of some absolutely terrible green flowers curtains. Dreadful as curtains, but they looked really good on a bag!

These ones were bright orange and leafy.... left behind by the previous owners of my house... only reason i still had them 10 years later is because i hate throwing away stuff... and there was nothing wrong with these curtains... except for them being orange lol...

One is 11 and the other 13... They are coming for a rummage in my cupboards next weekend...

Great idea! I will make lots of them for friends and family, that will be fun.
