10 Creative Ways to Make Ikea Curtains Super Stylish
10 Creative Ways to Make Ikea Curtains Super Stylish
We basically want to put yellow pom-poms on everything now.
Get Playful with Pom Poms
Neon yellow trim with dangling pom-poms adds texture and serious fun factor to all-white curtains. We love that even the curtain tie features the same matching details.
Paint Nautical Stripes
The trick to making perfect navy lines across an all-white curtain? Painter's tape of course. The same stuff that works on your walls will ensure the edges on your stripes are straight and the same size.
Attach Colorful Ties
When it comes to curtains in a little girl's room, there's no such thing as too much pink or orange. These colorful ties add extra pizzaz to an already pink polka dot set of curtains, and creates a serious pop against gray walls and a white rod.
Stencil On Serious Pattern
Use a paint roller to fill in the holes on your stencil evenly and a sheet of paper to make sure each stripe is evenly spaced out. The results? Curtains that look like they were made with dynamic stripes.
Add Pattern With Paint Pens
For these hexagonal shapes all you need is a silver paint pen and a steady hand (or a stencil). The subtle statement only takes minutes to pull off, but makes all the difference.
Add Thick Grey Stripes
For bold, attention-stealing striped curtains like these, you'll need extra long Ikea curtains and heather gray fabric to glue on top.
Pinch Pleat the Top
While a flat panel is fine, pinch pleats add a luxe touch to classic curtains. Spray paint your curtain rod and rings gold to create accessories that match your now seemingly high-end drapes.
Add Fabulous Fringe
Inspired by Anthropology drapes, this blogger added soft brown tassels and grey (almost silver) lining to the sides of neutral curtains to create a vintage vibe on otherwise ho hum curtains.
Paint Elaborate Patterns
For color with serious hold, mix two parts paint and one part textile medium. Then, use painters tape to create a pattern and cover it all up with your yellow formula. Once everything dries, just peel the tape off to reveal your masterpiece.
Transform Them Into a Canopy
Who says curtains have to hang over windows? These white drapes become a canopy over a little girl's bed when attached to an upside down planter (how genius is that?!).
