Curtains shortened
$160
Port Augusta SA, Australia
14th Oct 2024
I have two thick curtains, I want them cut to be 1.2 metres in height. The width is ok and doesn't need to be altered. I did keep the little weights aside to be put back in when cut and hemmed properly, as I cut a lot of excess to make it easier. I'm more than happy to bring them to you and leave them overnight / for a day or two and pick them up again. Will assume each curtain will take an hour or less, and will budget for a highly experienced person to earn up to 50 bucks an hour to help me with this. The successful candidate will demonstrate examples of their work and experience.
