  • Easy Window Treatments for Home Decorating on a Budget
  • advertisement

    If you’re looking for budget home decorating ideas, one way to save money is by making your own window treatments. And you can find tons of easy window treatment ideas at DIYnet.com.

    Easy Window Treatments
    DIY interior design expert Bea Pila suggests looking in thrift stores, flea markets, white sales and remnant bins for easy window treatments that don’t require any sewing. A few of her easy do it yourself window treatments include making a window valance using a scarf. Dress it up by choosing a scarf with fringed ends and sequins. Another no sew window treatment idea is to use a tablecloth. Select a frilly, lace tablecloth that still lets some light through. Since the tablecloth already has a finished edge, no sewing is required. Fabric shower-curtains are another option for do it yourself window treatments, and are easy to install since they are finished at the top with eyelets already made that can be used in hanging. Finally, another great budget home decorating idea for window treatments is to use a patterned, ruffled bed-sheet.

    More Budget Home Decorating Ideas Ask DIY decorating and design expert Nate Berkus suggests using decorative trims and tassels to make your interior look expensive. He suggests hot gluing brush fringe to the bottom, top or middle of an inexpensive, plain valance to enhance its look. It’s a simple no sew window treatment idea for anyone home decorating on a budget.
