I’m finally giving the neglected master bedroom some attention. I’m so tired of having a half-finshed bedroom! To that end, another thing my mom just finished up are these drapes. (She’s been busy! There’s even more after this elsewhere in the house to show you later…..)

Originally I thought I just wanted plain white drapes but with the white roman shades, it felt a little lackluster. It needed a little oomph. I looked high and low but couldn’t find any that I liked so I knew I had to do something custom. So then for months I played around with different ideas and finally settled on a white linen drape with a blue bottom border and tieback.

We just used a white linen/cotton blend and some blue cotton for the border and ties. I’m crazy about this shade of blue – it’s a little lighter than in this photo and has a slightly more purple hue. It works really well with the Benjamin Moore Bunny Gray paint on the wall.

I have a few more tweaks to make and then the bedroom may actually be ready for a reveal! What!
