Pricing out curtain weights and find it will cost $14 for the (50) I
need on ebay, w/postage. I'm thinking I could sew a US nickle in each
bottom corner a lot cheaper. Should work, shouldn't it, or what do you
use? TIA JPBill

G'day
Yes that will work.....but I visit the hardware store and buy washers
that are cheap. Make sure they are zinc coated so they don't rust,
specially if you live in a humid area.
Many years ago, I used lead sheeting and rolled it to a smaller parcel,
not recommended near kids though.
Hope this helps?

I bought inexpensive chain at the hardware store that I removed for washing.

I would have thought fishing sinkers would do the job.

They might, but a wide, open hem at the bottom makes it easy to thread
the chain through.
