Notice the Pattern

A little pattern can go a long way. If the idea of floor-to-ceiling florals makes you wince, go for a small dose of the design. (This is also a good way to incorporate a fabric you love that's not in your budget for whole panels.) Depending on the width of your curtains, you shouldn’t need more than a yard of fabric for this quick fix.
