Need curtains/blinds for really small window

I have a very small window in my laundry room that I need either curtains or blinds for. The window measures 27" from outside frame to outside frame (the window itself is 21").

All the curtains I'm seeing are way too big for this window. Anyone have any suggestions?

You could do a window cling. Or you can go to the fabric store get your self a piece of fabric cut slightly larger and use iron on fusible webbing to make edges. use clip rings and a pretty rod to hang.

Did you try Mauburn Curtain store? Sometimes they have different sized curtains.

Also, I've seen on hgtv once before when they've used 2 placemats across the top of a window as a valence. I wonder if you could work something out like that for your window? I know it may sound strange but looks great!!

In my bathroom I have a tiny window, I actually bought an inexpensive curtain rod from Target (that inside mounts b/c I have nice molding around the window i didn't want to cover up) and a valance from BBB that covers the window nicely, I now actually bought a couple of valances (one from JC Penny's too) to change with the seasons...I really like the way it looks:)
