How to introduce pink color to blue curtains?

10 years ago

We have a very blue room that we're trying to make into a pink nursery/girl's room. It has light blue walls, somewhat darker blue curtains and carpet, and I'm going to go for a pink and blue color scheme. I plan on getting wall decals and a few other accessories, but the blue curtains really need a bit of pink to work with the rest of the room. Are there any products out there that can do that? I was thinking some sort of sash, but I don't want the curtains open all the time...any other ideas? Budget friendly. And I don't really sew...

run a band of pink down the inside of each panel. I'll try and find a photo.

Something like this, you could even use fabric glue if you don't sew.

You could also do some horizontal lines across the bottom.

Like Angel's idea something like this would work. You could use fusible web and iron on strips of fabrics. Another idea is to use iron on appliqués.

I understand your dilemma with trying to incorporate pink into a primarily blue nursery. I would soften the room by purchasing a beautiful stencil instead of decals because the impact of the white stencil get will give it that pure look. The pattern will dictate your direction for decor which is your preference. See images. You could add a wide band of pink to the bottom hem and introduce the same shade of pink with accessories. The stencil project is fun if you are game. Hope this helps, good luck.
