How to Make Vinyl Roller Shades Look More Expensive

August 10, 2015 by Valerie Ott 2 Comments

Hello! Hope you had a great weekend, guys!

You know how expensive window treatments are, right, guys? I, myself, like a house with a lot of light, but the tradeoff is having to figure out how to cover all of those windows on a budget. As an answer to this problem, I love me a roller shade. They are cheap and ok…a little cheap-looking, too, unless you know how to dress ’em up. Take a look at these nifty ideas:

    These are all really beautiful ideas! I have roller shades in my bedroom. While I don't mind them plain, my husband doesn't care for them. I'm really drawn to the Greek-key pattern. Thanks for sharing.
