curtains for playroom

**julie w** · 15-08-2009, 03:37 PM

Can anyone suggest where I can get some curtains for my playroom? I have 2 biggish windows in my front room with very 'living room' type curtains. I want to decorate it to look like a proper playroom. However all the curtains I have seen that could possibly be suitable are more like bedroom or baby type curtains.I have to have net curtains up as everyone can see straight in, so I cant use blinds. Any ideas would be most appreciated (also not too expensive either lol). Thankyou soooo much. Love Julie.x.

There's some nice ones on ebay, depends on your colour scheme.
item no. 280382440435
or 280385590366

I think a lot of the Next curtains aren't too bedroomy, with nice simple patterns

B&Q do some lovely ones at a very good price

Or you could get some plain curtains, yellow is nice & bright for playrooms & have children's tie backs & the ends to go on the pole, think argos do some.

How about getting some made in the very hungry caterpillar material or having some vertical blinds in multicoloured colours, each strip could be a different colour.

You could try terry's in Hartshill they have loads to chose from.

How about using duvet covers with heading tape on the top? If I buy bedding that doesn't have matching curtains I buy 2 extra duvet covers and use them (obviously not if they are expensive) - you can sometimes get sets that are buy one get one free!
