In The Mood For White Curtains...

Is it because being inside for months makes me think about changing things around in my house? Or that Spring around the corner makes me want a clean palette and fresh surroundings? Not sure what it is but I am definitely wanting some big, fluffy, white curtains for my home. Actually big, white, silk curtains to be exact (which would really not fit in this home at all and is usually not my first choice). I don't know, just one of those random urges...(sorry for the bad scans) LOVE the room below...

Even on beds...
Hello dream room...
The room in the Jan/Feb Elle Decor that started this infatuation...

The good news is, if should I decide to act on this urge, you can find reasonable white curtains almost everywhere (since at the moment getting them made is not an option).
Above, Pottery Barn-LOVE LOVE LOVE the bordered roman shades beneath the panels. Below, Ballard Designs- not a pole pocket fan though.
I must say, Restoration Hardware has some of the prettiest silk curtains, in all different styles if you are going to go the store bought route.
Well you know I couldn't leave off the old BFF West Elm.
* BTW- Just a warning, West Elm does not put a liner on the back of the curtains which drives me CRAZY. Pet Peeve- driving by homes with different curtains in every window in several colors. I know that unless you getting them made the liners are not going to match, but at least they can all be similiar in color. Sorry, that is me being a picky decorator.

**I started pulling out pictures long before I ever thought of doing a blog so I do not have a lot of the information I would like about pictures. If you ever recognize one and have additional information I would love to have it since I think it is unfair to not give credit where it is due.

Have a great weekend!
