She wants curtains!

I am having trouble finding "cool" curtains.
What is "cool"?
Something that is 60's or 70's looking.

Anybody find any material that would fit the bill-I have search
on-line, but not having much luck.
TIA

If you can sew (or know someone who can Smiley ), buying fabric is a great idea! If sewing is not your thing, though, I saw a post recently for someone looking for Westy curtains. Here is that thread. Hope this helps.

Can't go wrong with color coordinated tie dye.

If that is too cliche, how about matching paisley?

Try your local thrift store or Goodwill. You can usually find the ugliest(cool) material there. My first curtains were made of potato sacks. No need for a sewing machine just a needle and some yarn. Easy  Smiley
