Bamboo Shades

I have two windows in the corner of my living room, and those poor guys have been left alone for too long. I've tried to find the perfect fabric to make curtains, but nothing ever seemed right. Then I realized what the problem was. Two words: Mini blinds. I could get the most fabulous fabric for curtains, but they still wouldn't change the fact that I had awful mini blinds. So I've decided its time to replace them. 

I looked into all my options and decided on Bamboo Roman shades. They are classic, pretty, and I've always loved them, so it only seems right. I ordered these over the weekend and am now just waiting, impatiently, for them to arrive. 
Now onto the curtains. I love floral fabric! I've thought about doing a floral of some sort, but I'm not really feeling price tag on the fabric that I really want. So I'm moving on. Instead I think I might just go with white and jazz it up a little by adding coral trim around the edges. I love the simplicity and timelessness of white curtains with bamboo roman shades.

This last picture is my ultimate favorite. I'm thinking something like this, but with coral instead of black.
