Using Innovative Ideas To Create Tie Top Curtains For Your Children’s Room

Posted by jasnav on April 3, 2009

If you are setting up a room for your child, then tie-top curtains are always the best option. The curtains should not be very dark-colored in a child’s bedroom to avoid giving a gloomy look. Always care must be taken that a child’s bedroom is furnished with light colored curtains such as baby pinks, light blue, mauves and whites.

To decorate a kid’s room innovative ideas are a must. It must be furnished with minimal furniture allowing lots of space for the child to play as well as have a provision for natural light and air to ventilate. Tie-top curtains are the best option for a child’s room. You can creatively make curtains for your kid’s room from easily available fabrics like Indian saris and let your imagination flow. For instance if you are using plain white organza fabric for a curtain, then attach colorful ribbons over the frame of the curtain to tie them up. Also, with the same left-over fabric of the ribbons, small patches of designs like flowers, balloons, birds etc can be made to match with the ribbons. Similarly, alphabets and numbers can also be painted over muslin or organza curtains innovatively for a kid’s room.

However, children usually stain the walls, sheets and curtains either with their chocolates or jams and jellies. In such cases tie-tops are a good option, they can be easily removed, washed and put back.

These fresh and light curtains add a delicate and decorative look to your windows and doors. The softness and sheer of these curtains when put up will add beauty to your home.

You can use old saris to create these tie tops, or buy new material from online stores that sell these. One website that I found to be quite useful with the large variety and reasonable prices is www.indianselections.com . Another one that is purely into sari materials is www.sarihome.com and I found it to be having a lot of good variety material.

      Wordpress has lots of themes that are available for use on its blogs. Look for themes on the site.
      Besides this, all you have to do is carry out a Google search, and you will come across numerous sites that offer wordpress themes, both paid as well as free.
      Best,
