Roller Shade with Twisted-Cord Tassel Pull

Martha Stewart Living, September 2010

Tools and Materials

Tailor a roller shade to suit your style with a twisted-cord tassel pull. Pick a contrasting color for impact and a sturdy fiber to ensure longevity. The neck on this 5-inch-long linen tassel pull serves as a grip; gold and burgundy threads were wrapped around the neck at the same time to create a striped effect. To attach the pull, remove the existing pull or punch a hole at the bottom of the shade. Thread the looped cord through the hole, and pull the tassel through the loop.
