This isn’t a standout. First of all, the projects are fairly standard, especially the window treatments, which is why I checked it out. Secondly, the instructions are for specific dimensions of window, rather than teaching you to measure your own window and adjust for that size and measurement. The instructions are also confusing. I was not impressed.
