DIY No-Sew Star Drapes

I've been busy updating the boys room little by little.  The time has come to graduate from the nautical theme into a more mature design that reflects their love of sports {sniff}.   I few weeks ago I shared the first two projects we tackled, The DIY Interchangeable Trophy Shelf and The Custom Sports Equipment Closet.

This week,  I finished their new semi-custom drapes...

It's kind of funny referring to them as "semi-custom".  That phrase makes them sound fancier than they are.  This no-sew project took less than 2 hours to complete.  The process is similar to my DIY Striped Drapes just a little quicker.

It's a perfect nap time project. 

The total cost was $35.  It would have been less if I was able to use their current navy drapes.  After removing them I noticed they were faded and needed to be replaced. 

Here is what they had before...

And now...

{After}

The addition of the stars completely changed the space.  

The large graphic pattern had a huge impact on the tiny room. 

After the drapes were up, I realized I no longer needed as many accessories as I originally thought.  The new drapes and bold wall stripes brought enough visual interest and personality to the space. 

Less clutter makes me a happy girl. 

I'll be posting a step by step tutorial for this project on Monday.
