answer:Oh shit. I can’t believe you asked this! I picked up a broom skirt at Goodwill. It’s kind of African, lots of browns and neat pattern. However, the bottom 4 inches is a bright, bright blue and I don’t like it. I found some brown cotton material—it’s actually the edges of those sheet things you put between matresses. I just cut a bunch off…but I am having a HELL of a time trying to figure out how to sew it on straight. Finally started making some headway..and realized I hadn’t cut enough of the brown material off, so I’m short. I just put every thing away. SO frustrating. Now I’m trying to figure out how to hang my mister across the back deck. I got all hung up on using zip ties….just realized just about anything will do. Baggie ties, wire, whatever. So I’m working on that now.
