I think they would add a great pop to your room! </p> <p>PS They look slightly different because I added grommets to the top for easier sliding. :) </p> [attach=186/12/mftjq7.215x405.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-470175 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 19:02:14 +0000 Reese 470175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ps your kitties are so cuuute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-470168 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 18:54:38 +0000 Reese 470168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would hold out and not go with the black. I think the first pattern would look great if it was in red and white/grey instead. Because you can't paint the walls, I would go with a bolder pop than the light blue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469638 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 02:51:51 +0000 Sweet T 469638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: I like that pattern a lot! I've also seen people use cloth shower curtains and it looks nice. I do think that fabric in the link would look great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469636 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 02:44:01 +0000 loveisstrange 469636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sweet T: I do sew. I've been trying to find fabric that I like but it's hard to find thick enough fabric that doesn't look like an old lady's tablecloth. </p> <p>I did find this one: <a href="http://www.fabricguru.com/cart//index.php?target=products&#038;mode=view&#038;product_id=459181" rel="nofollow">http://www.fabricguru.com/cart//index.php?target=products&#038;mode=view&#038;product_id=459181</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469629 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 02:24:25 +0000 Sweet T 469629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: I love the pattern of the first set of curtains but I do agree that they would be too dark. I think the white of the second set would blend with the walls a lot. Could you go with a colored pattern instead?</p> <p>Target has the black curtains you posted in a light blue. They might work.</p> <p>ETA: Do you sew at all? I found a blog where she used table cloths for curtains and they look great!</p> <p><a href="http://sweetmagnoliaway.blogspot.com/2011/08/using-tablecloths-as-curtain-panels.html" rel="nofollow">http://sweetmagnoliaway.blogspot.com/2011/08/using-tablecloths-as-curtain-panels.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469619 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 01:48:53 +0000 loveisstrange 469619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are these too light? </p> <p><a href="http://www.bedding.com/related-item/jojo-designs/zig-zag-turquoise-and-gray-window-panels-set-of-2-by-sweet-jojo-designs?mr:trackingCode=87B0A02A-5B50-E211-A87C-001B21A69EB8&#038;mr:referralID=NA&#038;mr:adType=pla&#038;mr:ad=21812099849&#038;mr:keyword=&#038;mr:match=&#038;mr:filter=46240501649&#038;gclid=CKWmpsqCv7QCFQVgMgod-WYAug" rel="nofollow">http://www.bedding.com/related-item/jojo-designs/zig-zag-turquoise-and-gray-window-panels-set-of-2-by-sweet-jojo-designs?mr:trackingCode=87B0A02A-5B50-E211-A87C-001B21A69EB8&#038;mr:referralID=NA&#038;mr:adType=pla&#038;mr:ad=21812099849&#038;mr:keyword=&#038;mr:match=&#038;mr:filter=46240501649&#038;gclid=CKWmpsqCv7QCFQVgMgod-WYAug</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469614 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 01:25:46 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 469614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the same curtains in light brown!!</p> <p>I do think they're too dark for that room I'd hold out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469612 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 01:23:33 +0000 loveisstrange 469612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Navy_Mommy: Hmmm....

I've been obsessed with this pin ever since I saw it, lol, but there's no place in my house where it would work... <a href="http://m.pinterest.com/pin/139189444705046642/" rel="nofollow">http://m.pinterest.com/pin/139189444705046642/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469582 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 00:25:00 +0000 loveisstrange 469582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: Yeah... that's what I thought.</p> <p>@Grace: Unfortunately, it's a rental and we can't paint. Our landlord sucks. We're working on artwork. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469581 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 00:23:24 +0000 Grace 469581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Those are gorgeous curtains, but I think you are having the same problem I am (except mine is all brown). I think you need some colour in the space. Maybe if you painted the walls, you coud get away with the curtains? Or even some colourful art on the walls? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469569 Sat, 29 Dec 2012 00:15:07 +0000 HLK208 469569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like the pattern but I would hold out and go with a pop of color. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/home-decor-advice-help#post-469555 Fri, 28 Dec 2012 23:32:18 +0000 loveisstrange 469555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, Target has some curtains I really like on sale cheap right now. Problem... they're black. Our couches are charcoal gray. Our furniture is black. Our walls and carpet are beige. Ugh. The accent colors in the room are red and turquoises.</p> <p>Is this too overpowering? Our house looks like a dorm room and I'm really trying to make it more like a home.</p> <p>Our living room</p> <p>[attach=1353/12/mfrz9w.600x400.IMG_0428.JPG]</p> <p>Closer of the color of our couch</p> <p>[attach=1353/12/mfrz9z.400x600.IMG_4144.JPG]</p> <p>The curtains</p> <p>[attach=1353/12/mfrza0.410x410.13820916.jpg] </p>
