Roller shades provide privacy and block sunlight, but they leave much to be desired when it comes to style. Here's an easy solution. Think of the white background as a blank canvas, and embellish it with your favorite paint, fabrics, and trim. You don't have to be an artist to recreate this look. The inspiration for the design came from a print used in the room.
