  Window treatments don’t always mean just plain old shades or boring curtains. There are a variety of fun and unique window treatments that you can try to add some pizzazz to a room with a little bit of imagination. Instead of using the same old ideas, try some creative ideas for window treatments to dress up the windows in your home.
  
  

Colorful Bamboo

• Bamboo curtains can give any room a natural touch, but try a modern twist for a unique look. Instead of just doing bamboo, try a colorful touch of nature by applying different colors of clear lacquer to your bamboo shades. Use a small brush to paint each shade purple, red, green, and other colors, or do all one color.
  
  

Tie-Dye

• Give your curtains a groovy look by taking plain white curtains and tie-dyeing them. Tie-dye kits are easy to use and relatively cheap at most craft stores. You can follow a design pattern or play around with different looks. The color in the tie-dye will really burst with the sun’s rays brightening it from outside.
  
  

Garden Windows

• For a garden fresh look on your windows, try wrapping your curtain rod in floral garland or vines with your favorite fake flowers glued to them. You can also pair your curtain rod wrap with curtains that match the color of the flowers you choose. Another idea is to glue small fake flower buds to a cloth curtain.
  
  

Shower Curtain

• Get even more creative by ditching the curtain section at your local home décor store and heading to the bath section to find a shower curtain you like for your windows. You can skip your typical fabric curtains and go for latex or vinyl shower curtains for an interesting look. If you are covering a long window, you don’t even have to trim curtains; otherwise, trim them to fit any window in your room.
  
  

Sectioned Curtains

• Try putting different fabrics together to make an interesting window treatment. Head to your local craft store and find three or four fabrics you like that look great together. Measure your window into three or four sections and cut pieces of fabric that together will fit your window‘s width. You can sew them together or hang them as three or four separate pieces that allow for some sunlight to peek through between each piece.
